[Vivek Ramadoss <Keviv93@xxxxxxxxx>]

So is there a fix for making ctrl + alt + numpad 4 and numpad 6 cycle
between the various widths for multiple keypresses instead of just being
half? Because my compiz grid still does not work. I am on Ubuntu 12.04
LTS.

Bug description:
  I've used the Compiz Grid function for a long time and I generally use
  it to set my browser to the right 2/3 or 3/4 of the screen and have
  other apps on the top or bottom half of the remaining part. Now when I
  press ctrl + alt numpad 4 or numpad 6 it only does half and when
  pressing it a second or third time it does nothing. The options for
  different sizes work for all the corners and top and bottom. When I
  press ctrl + alt numpad 9 it does the same thing as pressing ctrl +
  alt numpat 8.  Here's a video that may illustrate the problem better
  than my description.
