This bug is related to bug #783434 and has been partially fixed by my branch lp:~3v1n0/unity/fix-783434.

Jamie Strandboge; well spotted and thanks for reporting, this is a critical bug. ** Description changed: - Binary package hint: unity + Spread not triggered correctly when a application has a mix of minimized + and restored windows and another application is in focus. - If I have multiple windows open for a particular application, eg - multiple gnome-terminal windows, and I minimize some, but not all of - them, either: + To reproduce: + 1. launch 4 terminals with 'ctrl+alt+t' + 2. minimize one of the terminal windows + 3. open firefox such that it is in the foreground and has focus + 4. Left click on the terminal icon in the Launcher - 1. I cannot access the minimized windows via the launcher until I minimize all windows for this application (this happens when a matching application has focus) - 2. upon clicking the launcher the minimized application is unconditionally brought to the foreground rather than having the opportunity to select from one of the several applications (this happens when a non-matching application has focus) + Current incorrect behaviour: + 5. The minimized terminal window(s) are restored - Reproducer for #1: - 1. launch 4 terminals with 'ctrl+alt+t' - 2. minimize one - 3. clicking on the unity launcher only shows the 3 unminimized terminals for selection. To get back to the minimized one, I must minimize the remaining three terminals, then click the launcher icon at which point all four are unminimized and brought forward. + Desired correct behaviour: + 5. The last active non-minimised terminal window ( *not* the window minimised in step 2 above) is brought back into focus. - Expected results: I am presented with a way to choose to bring into - focus any of the four terminals. + Subsequently if... + 6. The user clicks on the terminal icon in the Launcher a second time + 7.

[Bug 688117] Re: Launcher does not raise minimized windows consistently
I've made another patch which produces the two test cases that the reporter lists. In both instances the scale plugin is launched with all windows visible. It behaves consistently in that when clicking on an icon with a single window the window is focused, with multiple windows all windows are displayed through the scale plugin (whether or not they are minimised). Clicking again on the icon will terminate the scale. I believe terminating the scale when clicking on the icon is the intended behaviour according to the comments in the code. The only case where it isn't consistent is if all windows are minimised, clicking the icon with focus instead of scale. I'm not sure why because from debugging it does appear to be initiating the scale in this case.
