[Bug 989477] Re: Unity launcher does not re-appear when autohide switched on
I think I'm having the same problem, in 12.10. Here's how I produce the bug: -Turn on autohide using Settings--Appearance--Behavior At this point the launcher hides and appears as expected -Run CompizVonfig Settings Manager, go to Window Management and uncheck Snapping Windows to turn the feature off. At this point the launcher will not appear in response to the mouse. Super and Alt+F1 will make the launcher appear.

It appears a lot of people are confused about the pushing-the-edge thing that you have to do to get the launcher. It is very nice when you know it, but totally impossible to figure out on your own quickly. May I suggest changing the cursor into something suggestive when pushing the edge, so that the user knows there is something different there and maybe get an idea of what to do? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/989477 Title: Unity launcher does not re-appear when autohide switched on To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/989477/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 989477] Re: Unity launcher does not re-appear when autohide switched on
Similiar issue is on x86, but the launcher reveals sometimes when you try to move the mouse after the left edge of the screen. The behaviour seems to be inentional (except it shoud work always), related to this feature: http://design.canonical.com/2012/01/launcher-reveal-prototype/ The feature was introduced in the unity-2d 5.7 version as https://launchpad.net/bugs/765819. Experimenting with dconf-editor shows that setting com.canonical.Unity2d.Launcher edge-reveal-presure to 0 makes the auto hide behavoiur to work more or less similiar as before. Introducing the new reveal behavoiur without easy way to achieve the old behavoiur makes realy bad experience from users point of view. It looks like something which worked good before is broken after upgrade. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/989477 Title: Unity launcher does not re-appear when autohide switched on To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/989477/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've installed old versions of unity-2d to see when this broke. As far as I can tell, autohide stopped working in 5.7.0-0ubuntu1. That's when the new autohide came in I think? ./share/glib-2.0/schemas/com.canonical.Unity2d.gschema.xml is the only output from your command. I have the same values as Carl Englund in dconf-editor.

[Bug 989477] Re: Unity launcher does not re-appear when autohide switched on
I have a similar issue with autohiding the launcher... When the launcher autohides, I can frequently go to the left and have it appear right away, but sometimes, I have to try 3 or 4 times quickly in succession for it to work. I know it's not an issue with not waiting long enough, because for the times that it doesn't work, I see the shadow of the launcher appear suddenly, then fade back out. This can happen, as I mentioned, up to 4 times before it will actually expand the menu (instead of just briefly displaying the drop shadow). Having sensitivity set to default or High doesn't seem to change that. It appears, though, that on high, it might only show up consistently if I go really fast, as if I'm trying to break the mouse through the left side of the monitor and into the real world outside of confines of the desktop. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/989477 Title: Unity launcher does not re-appear when autohide switched on To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/989477/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 989477] Re: Unity launcher does not re-appear when autohide switched on
This was working for me during testing, but seems to have cropped up somewhere around release time. If I unmaximize all open windows, the left-side trigger works as intended, but at soon as I maximize one window, the launcher no longer appears no matter how hard I hit the left edge. Also, when this happens, Super just makes everything pale as if dash and launcher were opened on top, but they're not. Doubly also, there is some gesture that makes things work again, but I have yet to pinpoint what exactly it is.
