[Bug 791412] Re: Does not switch to right desktop upon launcher click, when target application is side-window-snapped

 

If it's fixed in 13.04, is there a chance the fix is backported to 12.04
?

Title:
  Does not switch to right desktop upon launcher click, when target
  application is side-window-snapped

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: unity

  Working in a default, 2x2 workspaces setup, workspaces are numbered:
  1 2
  3 4

  Steps to reproduce:
  1) Open a window (tried with nautilus and thunderbird) on a workspace, and snap it to the side of the screen on which the workspace can be found in the desktop wall  (that would be left edge for windows on workspaces 1 and 3, right edge for 2 and 4)
  2) Switch to the workspace horizontally neighbouring the current workspace (to the left or to the right) and open/focus a window there
  3) Click the icon of the window snapped from the launcher

  Expected result:
  The workspace containing the app should be shown with the app you have selected

  What happens instead:
  The workspace is not switched, the window seems to be focused, as the triangle appears near its icon, and the shadow on one side of the workspace gets bigger.

  in 12.04 the window also gets awkwardly displaced. Unfortunately,
  screen recording is nonfunctional for me in 12.04 right now.
