[Bug 1141079] Re: [regression-r3606] Compiz broken with QT menus/floating controls in 13.04

 

@Sam: Seems like this is not yet fixed. Floating controls in Fullscreen affected media players,
just come up once per videoplayer...

[Most easy way to reproduce]

Start a video with SMPlayer or VLC
Double-click the video to enter Fullscreen
Move the mouse to make player controls appear, note that they fade in as expected
Wait until controls autohide
Move the mouse to access controls again

[What you would expect to happen]

Controls should reappear.

[What actually happens]

Controls do not appear, you have to close and reopen the player to make
them work again.


** Description changed:

  When using QT apps such as VLC player in ubuntu 13.04 menus and floating
  controls are all messed up. Whenever I bring up a right click menu in a
  QT app compiz thinks the menu is another window and it shows up as
  "untitled window" I saw this in xubuntu 13.04 + compiz as window manager
  and in a fresh 13.04 unity install.
  
  In addition if you go fullscreen in vlc or smplayer and bring up the
  floating controls it glitches out and stops letting you bring them up,
  you also occasionally see flashes of the unity launcher/menu bar when
  you bring them up. This is a very big regression, and QT video players
  are basically unusable...
  
  I also get random invisible menus in QT applications
  
  Here is a video showing the untitled window bug and an issue with
  invisible menus in QT apps (you can see at the end the tools menu is
  totally invisible, this happens in every single qt app and is easy for
  me to reproduce):

  I wasn't able to catch the fullscreen controls bug on video for some
  reason, that one only seemed to happen when I was in unity.

  I initially thought this was something wrong with my install or
  something to do with XFCE, so I tried downloading a fresh ubuntu/unity
  raring ISO and saw the same issues there.
