[Bug 748539] Re: Multi-monitor - Panel and launcher visible on top of multimonitor non-focused fullscreen apps
May please I request that it's put into unity 6 as well?
The issue means terminal windows as well as a list of running applications is visible from the lock screen.
For 12.04 LTS, which is likely to be installed in large companies, this could be a security risk.

Title:
Multi-monitor - Panel and launcher visible on top of multimonitor non-
focused fullscreen apps
Status in Ayatana Design:
Fix Released
Status in Unity:
Fix Released
Status in Unity 6.0 series:

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: unity
See the attached screenshot.
When an app is fullscreen (fullscreen, not maximized) on a monitor,
but another program is focused on the other monitor, then the unity
panel is displayed at when it shoudn't be.
I appreciate this probably isn't a priority, but for a future release
it would be good seeing as it's the little details that matter.
------------------------------
Desired solution:
- When an app is fullscreen (fullscreen, not maximized) on a monitor,
but another program is focused on the other monitor, the unity menu
bar should not be displayed on the monitor that is displaying the
fullscreen app.
- When fixing this bug, also look at bug #1065425
WORKAROUND FOR THIS BUG:
Turn "Always On Top" on via right-clicking the titlebar of your window, before making it go fullscreen.
This will prevent the Unity panel from rendering on top of this fullscreen-window, when using the other screen.
