[Bug 1174054] Re: "Always on top" breaks spread/expose

 

I think Alistair is correct: I have no Black rectangle issue (not using
nvidia), but "always on top" is certainly broken in the way the OP
described.

Title:
  "Always on top" breaks spread/expose

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open three windows of one application, eg three gnome-terminal windows, by middle clicking the launcher icon three times.
  2. Minimize all three windows.
  3. Left click the unity launcher for gnome-terminal once. This should reveal a single terminal window.
  4. Right click the terminal window title and click "always on top"
  5. Minimize the terminal window.
  6. Left click the unity launch of gnome-terminal once. The window you just marked "always on top" should unminimize.
  7. Left click the launcher icon of gnome-terminal again.

  What is supposed to happen:
  All three terminal windows should be shown in spread/expose mode to allow you to select one of them.

  What actually happens:
  Nothing at all.

  Additionally, raising those windows some other way (eg with alt-tab)
  sometimes leads to them displaying as empty black rectangles with
  window decorations.
