[Bug 1003950] Re: launcher does not show minimized update manager while clicked

 

I'm having this issue on 14.04. Here's a workaround:

```
sudo apt-get install wmctrl # if necessary
wmctrl -R 'Software Updater'
```

```
wmctrl --help | grep -A1 ' -R'
  -R <WIN>             Move the window to the current desktop and
                       activate it.
```

Here's the window's previous geometry:

```
xwininfo  -name 'Software Updater'

Bug description:
  Update manager is showing up in the dock but I can click on the icon
  all day and nothing happens. Similarly if I do Super-S or Super-W it
  doesn't show up anywhere.

  Even if I alt-tab to the application nothing shows up. This happens
  only when update manager runs on its own. If I kill it and then launch
  it myself it comes to the foreground just fine.

  I'm not 100% sure whether this is a unity, compiz, or update-manager
  bug but so far my bet is on unity.
