Title:
Parts of Unity are becoming invisible after taking a timed screenshot
of the "Alt-Tab" screen
Status in Unity:
Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I wanted to take a screen-shot of my desktop while the application
switcher (Alt+Tab) is opened.
Obviously, tapping the "Prt Sc" key would not work, (Most likely
because I have to keep the "Alt" key pressed, to keep the the
Application Switcher visible).So I used the gnome-screenshot app.
This is what I did, and steps to reproduce the problem.
- Kept the default selection ("Grab the whole screen), and set a delay of 3 seconds.
- Press take screenshot
- Press Alt-Tab and keep the Alt button pressed while waiting for the screenshot to be taken
- I might be wrong here but this bug only happens when the activated window after taking the screenshot is maximized.
- When the screenshot is taken, the window will appear which shows the screenshot.
- Release the Alt key.
- At this point, Unity will be somewhat broken.
* Pressing the Super key will no longer show the dashboard.
* Pressing Alt-Tab doesn't show the Application switcher.
To fix it, I keep middle clicking with the mouse on the top bar to bring the current window to the background. Until I reach the Screenshot.
After I close it, everything is turned back to normal.
I'm not sure if this is a bug in Unity or in Gnome Screenshot, but
since it only occurs with me while using the gnome-screenshot package,
I filed the bug here.
