[Bug 938758] Re: AutoHidden launcher reveal sensitivity adjustment should allow disabling push-past for wacom tablets

 

I can't believe this. Ubuntu/Unity is supposed to be touch/tablet
friendly but as a convertible laptop user (X220T with pen and touch)
this kind of ambivalence is maddening. I expect to do a little tinkering
to make things work, but it feels like we've been hung out to dry.

Title:
  AutoHidden launcher reveal sensitivity adjustment should allow
  disabling push-past for wacom tablets

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

Bug description:
  Since tablets are set to absolute, one cannot invoke a hidden launcher
  via the new 'push-past' method implemented. One would expect to be
  able to turn the sensitivity settings all the way up to disable all
  push past. However, this is not the case.

  End result, I cannot use autohide with a wacom tablet.

  Expected behavior: Maximum sensitivity == disable pushpast so that
  behavior is pre-12.04 where simple edge-detect reveals.
