[Bug 877112] [NEW] Window is stuck slightly off to the right edge of screen, cannot access controls via the 'taskbar'

 

Public bug reported:

I can close the window via the Launch interface but I cannot seem to re-
select it in unity's opinion. The tool bar that has been moved to the
launch bar wont appear like it's supposed to.  This isn't the place to
say it but I honestly don't see how this method is a more efficient
window manager than just having a function menu on the window like it's
always been, but I'm not a developer so I'm sorry for mentioning it.   I
miss Gnome but I love ubuntu so I will just report what I can and try to
help get these kinks worked out.  I have a screen shot saved if it's
useful to see what I am talking about.
