[Bug 1465858] [NEW] Time can not be read when alarm is set (while swiping/opening indicator)

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I am on krillin r23 stable (OTA-4), but I have reproduced this bug on
mako (stable channel) too.

0. launch a full screen app like Machine Vs Machines. NO alarm set.
1. can't see the time (expected) because when in full screen: top bar indicator is hidden
2. swipe from top edge and focus time indicator: you can read the time at the top of the time label indicator (expected)

Now

0. launch a full screen app like Machine Vs Machines. At least 1 alarm is set and due in the futur.
1. can't see the time (expected) because when in full screen : top bar indicator is hidden
2. swipe from top edge and focus time indicator: you can't read the time at the top of the time label's indicator because the time is replaced by the alarm icon (not expected)

Current UX to see the time (alternative solution until it get fixed):

3. swipe from left side, and focus another app not in full screen (or go scope with left swipe)
4. see time from top bar indicators.
5. swipe from right to get back at your focused apps.

Or :
3. push power (screen off)
4. push power (screen on, lock screen)
5. check the time at the top bar indicator
6. unlock to get back to yout focused app.

5 or 6  steps are needed to just watch the time while only 1or2 could do
the work if the time was always shown on the indicator time's icon.

I beleive this is not a niche need :
 * Alarms are usual
 * Full screen apps too
 * checking time too

PS: please affect the bug to indicator if needed, It fails when I tryed
