[Bug 970038] Re: Launcher do not want to appear

 

As part of the big bug review for 16.04 LTS I have tested this on 15.10
using the steps provided in the comment above and the bug is still
there.

A good workaround is to simply press the <super> for for a second. You
can then grab the launcher's focus as before.

Title:
  Launcher do not want to appear

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  All time testing new U 12.04 I have the same problem.

  After enabling the "Auto-hide the Launcher" I have problem to reach
  that Launcher appears again.

  I move the pointer lo left, but just the margin of screen gets darker
  - thats all.

  I have to repeat moving pointer right - left many times (sometimes 4x,
  sometimes >> 15x) before I get finally Launcher visible again. To let
  pointer at border longer don't help.

  I have Intel's G840 CPU with Sandy HD graphic (if it matters).

  I hope, it will be corrected before final release.

  Thanks  --kapetr
