[Bug 1087090] Re: [raring][regression] Window management - Maximized windows aren't fullscreen in the workspace switcher

 

This bug was fixed in the package compiz -
1:0.9.11.3+14.04.20141104-0ubuntu1

---------------
compiz (1:0.9.11.3+14.04.20141104-0ubuntu1) trusty; urgency=medium

  [ Chris Townsend ]
  * Add NumLock and CapsLock button ungrab keymasks, so unfocused Gtk
    window scrolling will work when NumLock is off and CapsLock is on
    and any combination thereof. (LP: #1311788)
  * Fixes issue in the Expo plugin where a gap is shown in the place
    where the Launcher and Panel should be when windows are maximized.
    This was originally removed in rev. 3481. (LP: #1087090)
  * Bump version to 0.9.11.3.

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Having a maximized window in Expo mode has kind of a jarring effect
  with a blank space where the Launcher and Panel should be.  This leads
  to poor visual experience for users.

  [Test case]

  1. Make sure workspaces are enabled.
  2. Open a window and make sure it's maximized.
  3. Initiate Expo by hitting Super+S.

  [Regression potential]

  None identified.

  Original description:

  Hello,

  Since today's updates of compiz, the workspace switcher don't work the
  same way as before. When you have a maximized windows and you click on
  the launcher's workspace icon, the workspace switcher appears but the
  maximized windows aren't fullscreened. You can see the voids that
  represent the launcher and the panel.

  I attached a screenshot for a better understanding of the problem.
