[Bug 645615] [NEW] "Always on top" feature bug

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

On any window, you can right-click on the top bar and enable "always on
top". Thus, if you click on another window, this one stays "on top".

But if you open a popup/dialogbox depending of the "always on top"
window, you lose totally the "always on top" behaviour, even after
closing the popup.

Example:
1. Open gedit.
2. Enable "always on top" for this window.
3. Check it works.
4. Open "Edit > Preferences"
5. Check "always on top" doesn't work anymore.
6. Close the popup.
7. Check it still doesn't work.
