[Bug 885861] Re: When impress running presentation in fullscreen on secondary display unity pannel is visible

 

I'm not so sure this is actually a bug. When the presentation is
focused, it is full screen and is on top of all windows and Unity's menu
bar. When another app is focused, it's on top of all other windows and
the menu bar is visible since the other app isn't covering the menu bar.
This behavior does not even require a second monitor to reproduce.

If this behavior is a bug, I think it should be reported about unity,
not libreoffice.

I do admit that it would be convenient to be able to work on a second
screen while a presentation is showing on the first screen without the
menu bar covering the top few pixels, but the tradeoff is that it might
make it impossible to use the menu bar when any app is fullscreen
without first un-fullscreening the app.

  unity pannel is visible

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When impress is running presentation on secondary displays, it not
  always display 'over' the uninty menu (at the screen top). This
  happens if focus is in main impress window (on primary displays) and
  presentation is running on secondary.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1) Set up a dual-screen configuration (with different content on each display)
  2) Run Impress, open/create presentation
  3) Set up in 'Slide Show' -> 'Slide Show Settings' in 'Multiple displays' presentation display (the second one).
  4) Run presentation (F5)
  5) Press Alt-tab to switch to any other application
  6) Return to Impress (all that time presentation is still running on secondary display)

  Expect:
  Nothing displays over presentation

  Got:
  Horizontal bar with notification icons, date, login button and so on displayed over running presentation.
