[Bug 1248029] Re: unity stalls on window resize using hotspot

 

** Description changed:

  When resizing windows using the "hotspots" (i.e. drag to top for full-
  size, drag to right for right-half, etc), it generally works fine.
  
  However, if I drag a window to the top hotspot, and release it too
  quickly, before the orange border has had time to fill the screen, then
  the window will not resize, the orange border will stay almost-complete
  and I will be unable to interact with the GUI.
+ 
+ **EDIT** It appears not to have anything to do with speed of release, as
+ the same problem happened after posting, but I held the window "in
+ limbo" for a second or two, and the border did finish filling the
+ screen.
  
  Dropping to tty and back to display blanks the screen, displaying only
  the cursor
  
  Replacing unity using tty works, and I can use the interface as normal
  from thenceforth, including resizing the window that caused the crash.
  
  I haven't had the problem with Left or Right hotspots, but I don't use
  them nearly as much.
  
  I thought the problem was with Chrome, but I've managed to reproduce
  (accidentally) using Libreoffice Writer and Libreoffice Calc.

Title:
  unity stalls on window resize using hotspot

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When resizing windows using the "hotspots" (i.e. drag to top for full-
  size, drag to right for right-half, etc), it generally works fine.

  However, if I drag a window to the top hotspot, and release it too
  quickly, before the orange border has had time to fill the screen,
  then the window will not resize, the orange border will stay almost-
  complete and I will be unable to interact with the GUI.

  **EDIT** It appears not to have anything to do with speed of release,
  as the same problem happened after posting, but I held the window "in
  limbo" for a second or two, and the border did finish filling the
  screen.

  Dropping to tty and back to display blanks the screen, displaying only
  the cursor

  Replacing unity using tty works, and I can use the interface as normal
  from thenceforth, including resizing the window that caused the crash.

  I haven't had the problem with Left or Right hotspots, but I don't use
  them nearly as much.

  I thought the problem was with Chrome, but I've managed to reproduce
  (accidentally) using Libreoffice Writer and Libreoffice Calc.
