[Bug 1282900] Re: compiz static window switcher no longer displaying window titles after upgrade

 

Problem still persist on 14.04.03 LTS (System fully updated as of this
writing).  But this should be an option one can enable.

Title:
  compiz static window switcher no longer displaying window titles after
  upgrade

Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have my Unity desktop configured to use the static application
  switcher plugin.  After upgrading to compiz
  1:0.9.11+14.04.20140218-0ubuntu1 (and related packages) today, and
  restarting my session, I find that the window switcher no longer
  displays window titles.  This is a major regression - the whole reason
  I'm using the static switcher is because a thumbnail-based picker is
  useless for distinguishing between many similar-looking windows!

  I was going to look at tracking this down in the code, but the
  previous version I had installed, 1:0.9.10+13.10.20131011-0ubuntu4,
  has no matching commit in the compiz bzr branch; there are no per-
  upload tags, and the changelog deltas are inserted on top of a tree
  that doesn't match what was uploaded.  So it's not very practical to
  track this back to a related commit.
