[Bug 763680] Re: Dash appears under full screen apps
White Screens update Actually, my white screens problem is not completely gone; There is no white screen problem for at least several hours after logging in. At some point, an application running in a full-screen window will go white-screen, but the header of its window is still visible. Hovering the cursor in certain sections of the white screen will bring up comment windows. Objects are still in the white screens, and they are functional. I just can't see them. I can grab the header and drag it downward to make it contract into a smaller window. Almost always, making a smaller window causes the content to become visible again. Enlarging the application to full screen causes the white screen to return. Screensaver Does Not Work Idling the terminal results in a white screen with no borders or features. With the default installation of 11.04, It was necessary to power off and power on to restore the system. After I unchecked 'Lock screen when screensaver is active,' the white screen goes away with a mouse jiggle or any keyboard activity. This seems to indicate that the screensaver does not work on my installation.

[Bug 763680] Re: Dash appears under full screen apps
I also had the blank screens problem described by Robertev in #7 above, after upgrading from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04. I may have found a work- around for it; Work-Around; Go to Preferences/Power Management/On AC Power Setting Put computer to sleep when inactive Change to Never. Go to Preferences/Screensaver Select a screensaver (vs default, which is 'blank') Uncheck Lock screen when screensaver is active Since making these changes, I have not had the white screen problem. Non-programmer comments; I found that blank white windows still contained clickable objects (which I could not see, but that I could activate by hovering the mouse in areas where clickable links should be. A comment box would sometimes pop up on the white screen. Problem is thus likely to be a bug in rewriting the content of the window... The 'white screen' with loss of all function happened when I left my computer idle for 5 minutes or longer. It seems that Ubuntu locked itself and was probably waiting for me to re-enter my password. However, I could not see the login screen. Disabling the sleep function and leaving Ubuntu unlocked when the screensaver is active seems to have solved these problems. Glad to hear that this condition has been fixed in Ubuntu 11.10 -- In a few weeks, I may even get the courage to upgrade further ;-) --Trent T -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763680 Title: Dash appears under full screen apps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/763680/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 763680] Re: Dash appears under full screen apps
I can confirm the behaviour David JB is seeing -- it doesn't happen all the time, and doesn't seem to be reproducible, but Compiz (both the Dash and the various launcher overlays) appear underneath windows and steal focus. It doesn't matter for me if the window is full-screen, maximized, or un-maximized.

[Bug 763680] Re: Dash appears under full screen apps
The reverse sometimes happens: If you switch to another workspace and select a previously unfocussed window, then switch back to the workspace with the fullscreen window, the dash will now be above the fullscreen window. No matter how much you click in the fullscreen window, the dash will remain above it. There is no way to reraise the fullscreen window/hide the dash once this happens, unless you have a dual monitor setup. Then you can click on the background of the other monitor and then click on the fullscreen window. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/763680 Title: Dash appears under full screen apps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/763680/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm seeing a similar issue with the Dash appearing under *all* windows, not just the ones that are full screen. Unsure when this starts happening for me (will keep an eye on it) but running 'unity --replace' solves the issue, at least until it happens again.
