Still in progress? This bug is the biggest blocker for using Xmir -rootless in Unity8.
** Summary changed: - Unity8 can't display multi-window apps (or menus/tooltips) + Unity8 can't display multi-surface apps (or menus/tooltips) ** Summary changed: - Unity8 can't display multi-surface apps (or menus/tooltips) + Unity8 can't display multi-surface apps (including menus and tooltips) ** Description changed: - Unity8 can't display multi-window apps (or menus/tooltips). + Unity8 can't display multi-surface apps (including menus and tooltips). Fixing bug 1497085 was a great start. However instead of crashing Unity8 now just shows the most recently created window by the app in the apps /single window/, and stretches it too. When such a secondary window like a menu or tooltip closes, you never get back to the original app window. So existing apps still aren't quite usable yet. Test case: sudo apt-get install mir-demos mir_demo_client_multiwin -- --desktop_file_hint=unity8 Expected: Three windows (red, green, blue) Observed: Only the blue window You can also experience the same bug with lots of apps via: Xmir -rootless under Unity8. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1543467 Title: Unity8 can't display multi-surface apps (including menus and tooltips) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qtmir/+bug/1543467/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
