Public bug reported:
On a multimonitor setup, with the Launcher behaviour set to Auto-hide, whilst
the HUD is displayed the mouse cursor cannot pass from right to left unless
travelling at high velocity (ie. not looking to trigger a launcher reveal).
Travelling from left to right there is no issue.
The problem appears to be that when a launcher reveal would normally be in the
process of being triggered on the left edge of a display, this is overriden
whilst the HUD is open, causing the mouse cursor to fight indefinitely at the
edge of the display to pass.
Solution:
At display boundaries, the first hold, for the Launcher reveal when travelling
from right to left, should be bypassed when the HUD is displayed. The second
hold (the hold which is symmetric in both left and right directions) should be
kept.
