Public bug reported:
I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Fresh install. All updates applied. Running
Unity.
1) Run Transmission (indictator applet enabled)
2) Click "Show Transmission" in indicator applet (checkmark disappears)
3) Click "Show Transmission" in indicator applet again (checkmark appears)
Desired behaviour: Bring Transmission window to foreground
Actual behaviour: Transmission icon in launcher triggers attention animation
4) Click "Show Transmission" again (checkmark disappears)
Desired behaviour: Bring Transmission window to foreground
Actual behaviour: Nothing happens
5) Now click the Transmission icon in the launcher
Desired behaviour: Bring Transmission window to foreground
Actual behaviour: Transmission icon in launcher triggers attention animation
6) Click the Transmission icon in the launcher again
Desired behaviour: Bring Transmission window to foreground, and place the
checkmark before the "Show Transmission" option in the indicator applet.
Actual behaviour: Bring Transmission window to foreground, without placing the
checkmark before the "Show Transmission" option in the indicator applet.
See what happened here? Now Transmission is visible, but the checkmark
in the indicator applet disappears when Transmission showing, and
appears when Transmission is hidden.
Suggested (functional) solutions:
* indicator applet should override the window status and force window focus
when "Show Transmission" is clicked.
* indicator applet should minimize/unminimize Transmission window instead of
completely hiding it.
* disable the indicator applet completely (not really a solution, but still
better than this odd behaviour).
** Affects: transmission (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
