[Bug 1313280] Re: Fullscreen window set to "Always on Top" in single-monitor will hide the lockscreen

 

This bug was fixed in the package unity -
7.2.0+14.10.20140512.4-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity (7.2.0+14.10.20140512.4-0ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=low

  [ Stephen M. Webb ]
  * lockscreen/LockScreenAccelerators.h: added required header for
    std:vector definition
  * disabled precompiled headers on arm64 Ubuntu package builds (LP:
    #1317276)

  [ Brandon Schaefer ]
  * Set the max width, so our static text wraps. So we don't end up
    rendering text out of the view area. (LP: #1312749)

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * UnityScreen: toggle activation of all the unity compiz actions when
    locking the screen Also, make sure that the lockscreen views are
    treated as "always-on-front" windows by nux (and this applies to
    both visibility and events).
  * PanelService: emit an invalid EntryActivated signal if the menu
    hasn't actually been shown In addition, if the menu is not visible
    after the first popup call, try to show a menu without keyboard
    focus. This will make possible to see menus also when there's a key-
    grab (although they will be without keyboard support). Finally,
    reset the menu state, if that failed.
  * UnityScreen: always paint the lockscreen above, just add menu and
    onboard as exceptions Some code cleanup, factorizing similar code.
    (LP: #1313280)
  * UnityScreen: don't try to show Dash/Hud if the screen is grabbed
    Also move the dash opening out from LauncherController, and get rid
    of UBus as first initialization source, as it can only slow things
    down here. (LP: #741869)
  * PluginAdapter: make sure we don't try to call an invalid
    initiate/terminate callback function (LP: #1221673)
  * DebugDBusInterface: match properties if they are in the AP array
    form [<type>, <value>] (LP: #1307748)

  [ William Hua ]
  * Add proper support for modifier-only shortcuts on the lock screen.
    (LP: #1291461)

  [ Jinkyu Yi ]
  * Dash: Fix problem at checking blacklisted unicode range (LP:
    #1251193)

  [ Andrea Azzarone ]
  * Add a warning in the session dialog if other sessions are still
    open. (LP: #1281058)

Title:
  Fullscreen window set to "Always on Top" in single-monitor will hide
  the lockscreen

Status in Unity:
  In Progress
Status in Unity 7.2 series:
  In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  A fullscreen window set to "always on top" hides the lockscreem.

  [Test Case]
  (1) Open a video in Totem
  (2) Right-click on the titlebar and set Totem to "Always on Top"
  (3) Make Totem full screen (eg. with the F11 key or clicking on the control)
  (4) Manually Lock the screen using Super+L
  (5) Notice that the lockscreen is hidden by totem.

  If you don't lock it manually and just pause the video and let it lock
  automatically this will show the same behavior.

  The same behavior occurs with any application that can enter full
  screen mode.

  [Regression Potential]Two cases may potentially source regressions.
  (1) windows that need to appear above the lockscreen, such as on-screen keyboards,
  (2) applications presenting fullscreen windows using unusual or non-standard toolkits.It is unlikely that regressions in either of these cases would be introduced by this bug fix, but rather would be pre-existing problems not fixed here.
  (3) Indicator menus might be not being drawn
