[Bug 734908] Re: Unity is visible on top of fullscreen apps

 

This resets your Unity settings but is a valid workaraound and solves
the problem

sudo apt-get install dconf-tools
dconf reset -f /org/compiz/
setsid unity

Bug description:
  [Test Case]
  1. Start a fullscreen application (e.g. Firefox in Fullscreen mode)
     -> Verify that the panel is not visible

  [Regression Potential]
  Visual regressions, shell drawing problems. Part of a big change, many regression potentials.

  Original description:

  NOTE: This bug is only about the single monitor case. If you still
  have problems with multiple monitors, see bug 748539 instead.

  ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
  In natty alpha 3 up to date, I cannot get fullscreen in any application. Panels are still visible.

  Tested with:
  - totem
  - vlc
  - firefox
  - chrome
  - geany

  Unity panel and top bar are always on top.

  -----------------------------------------------------
  Desired Solution:

  - When a window is fullscreen (note: this should not be confused with
  the *maximised* state) the menu bar should not be displayed.
