[Bug 1017550] Re: Unity Dash: The Dash does not get recognized by docks like Docky, Cairo Dock or Plank when set to fullscreen and the docks do not autohide

 

Hello and thank you for this bug report!

I'm not sure that this dash is a common window.
Is it possible to launch these two commands from a terminal, select your Unity Dash (I guess you can open it with a shortkey or you can add a delay by adding 'sleep 5 && ' before these commands) and post here the output messages in your terminal:

  $ xwininfo
  $ xprop

Title:
  Unity Dash: The Dash does not get recognized by docks like Docky,
  Cairo Dock or Plank when set to fullscreen and the docks do not
  autohide

Bug description:
  In the case of Docky the situation is even worse, because Docky stays above the Unity Dash, so selecting lenses with the mouse becomes impossible.
  Tests with Cairo Dock 3.0 and Plank showed that they just do not window dodge or autohide if the Dash gets maximized, so the Dash & lenses are on top of those docks then, but they do also not autohide like they should.
