[Bug 762699] Re: Unity launcher and panel do not zoom alongsize the desktop with Enhanced Zoom Desktop

 

Is there anything else we can do to help fixing this bug?

It's look like Ubuntu have lost interest on accessibility, this bug was
reported over 3 years ago and it isn't fixed yet. In addition, the Unity
menu stills not accessible from Orca Screen Reader

Title:
  Unity launcher and panel do not zoom alongsize the desktop with
  Enhanced Zoom Desktop

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: compiz

  Unity's top panel and launcher are not zoomable when using Compiz's
  Enhanced Zoom Desktop feature. Futhermore, top panel's shadow creates
  a visual glitch when zooming (see bug 762247). In Maverick zooming
  gnome-panel worked well. See attached screenshot for what happens in
  Unity.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1) (Note that this may break the desktop. Use caution.) Open CCSM and enable the Enhanced Zoom Desktop plugin, if not already enabled
  2) Set the zoom in and zoom out hotkeys if needed
  3) Zoom in to the desktop

  What should happen:
  All areas of the desktop zoom in together

  What happens instead:
  All areas of the desktop except for Unity (panel/dash/launcher) zoom in. Instead, Unity is overlayed on top of the zoomed area.
