Public bug reported: The Unity launcher fails to switch to the appropriate workspace when a window is placed against an extreme horizontal edge opposite the current user's workspace.
Steps to replicate behavior: 1) Switch to top-left workspace 2) Open an application, e.g., Terminal 3) Move the application window so that it touches the far left portion of the screen. It should "snap" to the edge of the screen, but it should NOT resize (e.g., should NOT maximize to one half of the screen) 4) Switch to the top-right workspace or the bottom-right workspace 5) Click the appropriate app icon for the app you launched (e.g., Terminal) in the Launcher 6) Observe that the workspace does not switch, but that Unity has the impression that the app's window has been selected. Note that this works vice versa when the app window is placed against the far right of a far right workspace and the user attempts to select the window from the Launcher while in a left-positioned workspace. ** Affects: unity Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776074 Title: Unity launcher won't switch to appropriate workspace when window against desktop border -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
