[Bug 1017550] Re: Unity Dash identifies itself as a dock window, so other docks get hidden underneath it

 

Maybe don't assign to Jason unless he agrees :)

Bug confirmed using these steps:
1. Open a terminal.
2. sleep 5 && xwininfo -all
3. Tap Super so the dash opens
4. Wait for the mouse pointer to change to a cross
5. Click on the dash
6. Close the dash.
7. Look in the terminal window where the window info has been dumped. You will see:

      Window type:
          Dock

Title:
  Unity Dash identifies itself as a dock window, so other docks get
  hidden underneath it

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “cairo-dock” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “docky” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When the Unity dash is open, other docks like Cairo-dock, Docky and Plank get buried underneath the dash window.
  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.
