This was obsoleted in Mir 0.14 (LP doesn't seem to have a way to set a milestone that passed months ago.) ** Changed in: mir Status: Incomplete => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1357259 Title: PlacementStrategy ignores the surface type and state Status in Mir: Fix Released Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The surface type and state are important bits of information when deciding the placement of a surface.
