Right, it was off by default at some point. If you upgraded through multiple Ubuntu releases it might have been stuck off from that time. That's a problem. It's quite possible that the other solutions were still working back then, so you didn't immediately realize it. A warning would have to pop up on startup too and that's something we try to avoid. Also I'd rather keep references to specific desktop environments to a minimum. I think the time would be better spent updating the raise-over-dash code one more time. I'll see if I can get it working, that'll buy us some more time.

Setting this shouldn't be necessary as onboard should automatically pop-up when the user selects any object that needs text entry. How to reproduce: 1. Start onboard on a computer with a touchscreen with the onboard setting 'Force Window on Top' disabled 2. Touch the Unity 'search your computer and online sources' to open Dash 3. Touch the 'Search your computer and online sources' search field to begin typing Result: Dash takes the focus away from onboard, meaning it's impossible to type in the Dash search field Expected result: I should be able to use onboard to type in the Dash search field, without needing a physical keyboard or other workarounds Workarounds: In Onboard preferences set 'Force Window on Top' Use a physical keyboard (defeats the purpose of Unity as a touch interface) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: onboard 1.0.0-0ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-36.63-generic 3.13.11.6 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-36-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.4 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sun Sep 28 19:56:37 2014 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-09-16 (11 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Server 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140416.2) SourcePackage: onboard UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/onboard/+bug/1375028/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
