[Bug 1313446] Re: window disappears on toggle shade

 

To demonstrate data loss, just open a new application and roll up the window. Then use alt-tab to get to this window. On my machine the whole session get killed and I'm logged out! So I don't only lose the one application, but all open files!
(Tried with Thunderbird and AisleRiot Solitaire under Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS)

Workarounds:
To disable the shortcut:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings toggle-shaded "['disabled']"
To enable the shortcut again:
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings toggle-shaded

To disable the mouse-action if you had it like me enabled on double-clicking the titlebar:
gsettings reset org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences action-double-click-titlebar
To enable it again:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences action-double-click-titlebar 'toggle-shade'

Title:
  window disappears on toggle shade

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

Bug description:
  I used Unity Tweak Tool to enable Toggle Shade using middle click.
  When I click to top of the window, it rolls up and disappears. A
  "ghost" outline of the window appears and the only way to get the
  window back is by using Alt-tab. Sometimes, when reselecting the
  window using Alt-tab, Ubuntu freezes (crashes) and an internal error
  is generated. It seems to be related to Compiz but I'm not sure. An
  error report was generated and sent.

  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (64-bit)
  Release:	14.04
  unity-tweak-tool 0.0.6ubuntu1

  I expected the window would "roll up" and I'd be left with the
  window's top bar like with previous versions of Ubuntu.
