[ Chris Townsend ]
* Only ungrab the Mod2Mask modifier on buttons 4-7 to allow scrolling
in unfocused Gtk windows while still allowing keybinding modifiers
to other scroll wheel actions. (LP: #1311788)
* Fix issue where window decorations would be placed under the Panel
when opening a new window from an already open window. This is due
to the already open window being taller or just as tall without be
maximized than the workspace. (LP: #1303462)
* Only constrain the non-modifier scrolling to the vertical scrolling
buttons - buttons 4 & 5. (LP: #1311303)
* Fix issue where maximized windows would get moved to different
workspaces when disconnecting/connecting an external monitor.
Windows should stay in the same workspace they are in when the
monitor event occurs. (LP: #1304531)
* Fix issue where custom keyboard shortcuts would get reset to
defaults when rebooting or restarting Compiz. (LP: #1063617)
* Fixes issue in the Expo plugin where a gap is shown in the place
where the Launcher and Panel should be when windows are maximized.
This was originally removed in rev. 3481. (LP: #1087090)
* Fix issue where horizontal and vertical keyboard resizing could not
happen at the same time. (LP: #347390)
[ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
* Scale: use XShape extension to exclude dnd input in the screen-parts
outside workArea This will work property also in multi-monitor,
without requiring multiple X windows for each output device. Also
don't terminate the scale unless a drag-n-drop action is not really
over. Add a spinner that shows up over a window, during the DnD
timeout. Plus, make sure we terminate the scale without focusing the
selected icon when cancelling it and some code cleanup (LP: #607796)
* Event: set the screen grabbed also when we get a NotifyWhileGrabbed
Focus{In,Out} event (LP: #1305586)

Title:
compiz lower window:<Alt>Button5 stops working
Status in Compiz:
In Progress
Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
Users who have the horizontal scroll buttons mapped with a modifier
such as 'Alt' to other functions using CCSM no longer have working
mapped functions. This breaks the user's workflow.
[Test case]
* Need a mouse with horizontal scrolling, ie, click the mouse wheel left and
right.
* Open CCSM.
* Map a function to the horizontal scroll buttons, ie, buttons 6 & 7. For
example:
* Enable workspaces.
* CCSM->Viewport Switcher->Desktop-based Viewport Switching
* Set "Move Next" to Alt + button 6 and "Move Prev" to Alt + button 7.
[Regression potential]
None identified.
Original Description:
Since upgrading to 14.04, compiz Lower Window key binding as alt+button5 is
no longer working completely. It used to nicely cycle through windows but now
if a window surfaces that is scrollable, the 'lower window' command stops
responding and the window content starts scrolling vertically even though the
alt key is still pressed. Clicking the window and then triggering 'lower
window' again causes it to temporarily start working again until another
scrollable window surfaces.
This is configured under ccsm General Options->Key Bindings->Lower
Window.
It worked previously in 13.10. I have since tried unity-reset and
reverting all compiz settings.
Other settings:
Click To Focus: off
Raise On Click: on
Auto-Raise: off
Focus Prevention Level: Low
I tested a different plugin "Opacity, Brightness and Saturation" with
the same key binding <Alt>Button5 and it does not demonstrate the same
behavior; I can tune any window opacity whether the window is
scrollable or not.
Setting the alternative Lower Window keyboard binding <Control>Down
works without the same interference.
