[Bug 990032] Re: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is "All Displays"
This bug has resurfaced for me in 16.04.1 LTS. However, I cannot confirm that restricting the launcher to a single screen prevents the stickiness, as changing the launcher placement has no effect. This is another bug that I will file separately. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990032 Title: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is "All Displays" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/990032/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 990032] Re: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is All Displays
@johnlea: well, there is one problematic case: if the launcher is set to autohide and it's placed only on one screen, edges shouldn't be sticky. For example, i have autohidden launcher on the left edge of my laptop screen (with an external display positioned to the right of the laptop, see attached). There should be no sticky edges in this situation, but for me the edge is sticky when travelling leftwards - and it's driving me nuts!! ** Attachment added: display-conf.png https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/990032/+attachment/4197181/+files/display-conf.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990032 Title: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is All Displays To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/990032/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 990032] Re: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is All Displays
I had the same problem as @jakobrunge, and solved it by setting All Settings Displays Launcher placement to Laptop (the edge which is not between both displays). So I confirm that either it's not a bug but a feature, either it is a real bug which can be easily avoided. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990032 Title: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is All Displays To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/990032/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 990032] Re: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is All Displays
@jakobrunge; do you have the Launcher locked out or set to autohide? I just retested with 12.04, and when the Launcher is locked out and sticky edges set to off, there are no sticky edges. However if the Launcher is set to autohide, setting sticky edges to off switches off all the sticky edges with the one exception of catching the pointer when it travels from right to left across monitors in order to reveal the auto-hidden Launcher (otherwise it would be impossible to reveal the Launcher). This is the correct behaviour. Are you seeing either of the two behaviours described above or something else? I am closing this bug for now, but will re-open if it turns out there is a bug with this behaviour. ** Changed in: unity Status: Confirmed = Fix Released ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990032 Title: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is All Displays To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/990032/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same problem on 12.04.1 LTS. I have an Laptop screen and external monitor with Launcher Placement to Laptop and the sticky edged button on/off has no effect. Then I temporarely changed Launcher Placement to All Displays and then back again to Laptop and now the edges are finally not sticky anymore...

I'm not sure if this is a bug, rather than a setting being set too high by default. The intuitive behaviour would be for the user to move across from screen to screen. Setting the default stop velocity at 65 is fairly high. Something in the 10-20 range seems to feel more in line with natural expectation.

Hmm, feels almost like a regression of bug 961285 to me. ** Changed in: unity Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed ** Changed in: unity Importance: Low = Medium ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Low = Medium ** Description changed: + See also: bug 987787 + Release: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Unity Version: 5.10.0-0ubuntu6 Expected: Sticky edges turns off when the switch is set to Off Actual: Sticky edges remains on regardless of switch position I've got two dual monitors running as an extended desktop. By default the Launcher placement property is set to All Displays and sticky edges is set to On. I like having the launcher on both desktops, but sticky edges is driving me nuts. So, naturally, I turned off sticky edges and left the launcher on all displays. Unfortunately, it seems that the On/Off switch for sticky edges serves no purpose when Launcher Placement is set to All Displays. The option to disable sticky edges in this scenario should be allowed, or at the very least the On/Off switch should be disabled and forced to On as to not confuse the user.

Thanks, in fact that's how it has been designed I think, launchers are always sticky, the option only impact on the screen barrier if you cross a border which has no launcher ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Also affects: unity Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: ayatana-design Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: unity Status: New = Incomplete ** Changed in: unity Importance: Undecided = Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990032 Title: Dual monitor sticky edges are still enabled when turned off in display manager and Launcher placement is All Displays To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/990032/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
