[Ayatana] State of launcher items (folded/expanded) inconsistent on unhide
Hello everyone,
I'm using up-to-date Natty with Unity 3.8.4 and I'm seeing a problem
with the way items are presented upon launcher unhide. If I'm not not
mistaken, then there currently are three ways to unhide the launcher:
1. Moving the mouse in the top-left corner BFB (home button):
The launcher unhides with the launcher items expanded, putting
half of my launcher items off-screen. When moving the mouse
outside of the BFB, the launcher items fold.
2. Pressing and holding the Super key:
The launcher unhides with the launcher items folded, which
expand a short time later, showing the shortcut overlays.
3. Pressing Alt + F1 to initiate keyboard navigation:
The launcher unhides with the launcher items expanded
and the first launcher item highlighted.
It's my understanding, that when I manually unhide the launcher, I also
want to see its _whole_ content (which is the case with disabled
autohide). What I would expect to see:
Case 1:
Don't expand the launcher items on BFB-mouseover. They'll still
expand on launcher-mouseover, which IMO is closer to launcher
interaction than touching the BFB.
Case 2:
Don't expand the launcher items when holding down the super key.
The shortcut overlays for lower launcher items are unreadable
either because the items are folded or the items are off-screen,
so I don't see the point in expanding them.
Case 3:
Only expanding the launcher items after the first action (key down).
Any thoughts?
Regards,
