[Bug 1187896] Re: Launcher cannot be reached in 'auto-hide' mode with Touchscreen
The gesture for opening the hidden launcher in Unity 7 is a four-finger
horizontal swipe (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Multitouch for more
gestures). This works well on all of my test hardware.
We have no plans to retrofit Unity 8 UI designs onto Unity 7.

Launcher cannot be reached in 'auto-hide' mode with Touchscreen

Bug description:
Ubuntu 13.04, 3.8.0-24-generic
When launcher is in 'auto-hide' mode, it appears to be inaccessible
when solely using Touchscreen input to slide, or even tap, the
farthest edge of the screen (whether left, or top-left is selected).
I've adjusted the sensitivity all the way down to the Highest, but it
still does not appear. Instead, it appears to hold focus on whatever
application is currently on top. In the situation where no apps are
open/near the hotspot, it is assumed I am either simply tapping the
desktop, or attempting to drag-highlight a group selection instead.
It should be noted that the cursor appears on the far edge, as I would
expect typical mouse behavior to emulate bringing the Launcher into
view.
