Currently horizontal scroll restores a maximized only if the mouse is inside the maximize/restore window control (the square). The horizontal scroll in the application/global menu opens it (bug #775872) while the horizontal scroll in the minimize window control (-) blows up unity.
** Summary changed: - Horizontal scroll in global menu restores window + Horizontal scroll on maximize/restore window control restores window. ** Changed in: unity Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Description changed: - To reproduce: maximize a window, move the mouse cursor to the global - menu and use the horizontal scroll with the mouse. The window restores - to non-maximized state. + To reproduce: maximize a window, move the mouse cursor to the + maximize/restore window control (the square) and use the horizontal + scroll with the mouse. The window restores to non-maximized state. This is annoying with a mouse where tilting the middle button/scroll wheel scrolls horizontally. It is easy to do by accident when trying to send the window to background. I imagine touchpads are likewise affected, e.g. when trying to hit the close button.
