@f_padia. An operating system does what it's called, it operates a system, and I would even say it's operating a workflow, the one that makes your tasks (and life) easier. So yes, using Unity without dodge/intellihide is not an option for me. It will make my workflow a lot more unintuitive, uncomfortable and definitely slower. The reason I liked Unity ways over Gnome Shell was this one precisely, you don't have to make many annoying and useless large gestures to get the gist of what you're currently doing/is currently open. At least in Gnome Shell you can use extensions to make up for it. In Unity, nothing can compensate the lack of overview of this dumb autohide.
I'm by no means resistant to change (e.g. Unity, buttons on left, Global menu, ... ), I've always adapted, but Unity without dodging is not an option for me, there's no way to adapt to this. I've tried both options left a few times, and both are uncomfortable and getting in my way, unusable, autohide taking the biscuit in terms of uselessness. So what I don't get is why they don't remove autohide instead, which no newcomer will understand anyhow, is dumb, uncomfortable and useless. This would spare resources more appropriately, since the smart behaviour is definitely required. Or they can give us a PPA. Or intellihide with visual message. Whatever they want, I don't care, as long as they let us the possibility to use the only behaviour either productive (as opposed to autohide), consistent (as opposed to never hide) and ergonomic (as opposed to autohide). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/930148 Title: Dodge windows is down but what about making the launcher autohide only on maximised apps ?
