Public bug reported: Using the gome-flashback session with metacity is totally messed up since I updated from Ubuntu 14.04.3 to 16.04.1.
All the effects mentioned here do not appear when using compiz, so I guess Metacity is broken. -Windows that should open in front (like Kupfer) appear behind the windows already open. -Before nemo is run, the Ubuntu default desktop background image appear, it can't be changed by settings. I just guess this is due wrong ordering of the true background and some window used by Gnome for showing the selected background. -If nemo is run to take over the desktop, the destkop icons appear in front of all windows. I guess all those effects originate from a similiar reason. None of these problems where appearant at Ubuntu 14.04. This is a total show stopper for using metacity on 16.04 as everyday applications like nemo and Kupfer can't be used. ** Affects: metacity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1614050 Title: Window depth order messed up To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/1614050/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
