Public bug reported: The Unity panel on the RHS of the screen displayed as I would expect on empty desktops and when the desktop does not contain a maximized window - i.e. its automatically displayed.
However when I have a maximized window, I can't get the unity panel to display using the mouse. I've tried this both on my day-to-day account and a fresh account (to make sure I did not have cranky settings).
