@Mark: hiding immediately after you click on a launcher icon and then pull your mouse off the launcher, right? (otherwise, you won't be able to click multiple times on a launcher icon to get the different spread views/filtering…). So, not just on clicking on a launcher icon?
The think is that when you click on a launcher icon and pull your mouse off the launcher and it hides immediately, you won't see the "starting" animation reassuring you that the application is, indeed, starting. But I think it's a fair assumption that if you want to ensure it's starting, just let your mouse hovering the launcher after clicking. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/709178 Title: the launcher should start hidding when an icon is clicked -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
