Title:
  Unity launcher icon edge illumination is offset

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

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Many users tend to change the size of the Launcher icons to better fit
  the screen resolution of their monitor or for personal tastes and
  workflow reasons.  This issue causes the "edge glow" of icons to be
  offset at sizes less than 40 and greater than 56.  This looks really
  ugly and unprofessional.

  [Test case]

  * Open CCSM->Ubuntu Unity Plugin->Launcher
  * Change "Launcher Icon Backlight Mode" to "Edge Illumination Toggles"
  * Change "Launcher Icon Size" to some value in the range described above such as 38.
  * Make sure an application is open on the Launcher to see the edge glow around the icon.

  [Regression Potential]

  The texture itself may not look as nice on hi DPI screens when
  rescaling, but when the texture is offset from the icon, it would be
  hard to tell anyways.

  Original Description:

  In Unity, when using the edge illumination effect on launcher icons is
  offset. It shows to the top and left of the icons, but barely at all
  to the right and bottom.

  This was not a problem before Trusty; in Saucy and previous releases
  the edges were aligned properly. See attached screenshots.
