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.
