Reverted to triaged because issues found in testing, see updated
description for details.
** Description changed:
+ We have tested the fix, and while it is an improvement the one of the
+ important use cases is not yet solved. To reproduce:
+
+ 1. Using a computer with two monitors, set the Launcher to auto-hide and
+ sticky edges to 'off'
+
+ 2. Set the 'sticky edges deactivated for number of milliseconds after
+ the user breaks the barrier' variable in CCSM to "1000ms"
+
+ 3. Move the pointer over the boundary from the left screen to the right
+ screen slowly, and then try to move it back again (within 1 second).
+
+ What currently happens: the pointer gets caught on the Launcher reveal
+ edge resistance on the left edge of the right monitor
+
+ What should happen: There should be no resistance when the pointer
+ comes back across the barrier because the barrier was already broken
+ inside 1000ms when the pointer moved from the left monitor to the right
+ monitor.
+
+ Also: set the value of the variable to 1000ms
+
+
+ --------------------------------
+
Add 'sticky edges deactivated for number of milliseconds after the user
breaks the barrier' variable to CCSM. This variable would de-activate
sticky edges for a set number of milliseconds every time after the
user's pointer moves from one monitor to another. The idea behind this
behaviour is to allow the user to course-correct after they have broken
through the barrier the first time.
Don't change any of the default values for the time being; once this is
implemented we will user test and experiment with different values
before deciding on whether we should change the default behaviour.
Note: Before working on this bug it is worth checking with Jason Smith
to see if he has already implemented some of this.
