Switch between opened windows by double click in Unity's dock icon

 

Hello,

I run on Ubuntu Oneiric beta and it works very fine, but I have a small problem since last week-end updates.

One of the new amazing features of Ubuntu 11.10 and Unity was : if an application has 2 or more windows opened (ie Firefox with navigation + bookmarks manager), a quick double click on its icon on Unity dock automatically switched from a window to another.

This was really useful, as normal switch with one click makes visible the thumbnails of all opened windows, but always with the current one on the left side of screen, so to change the window maximized I had to do more move with mouse. This new possibility was just perfect !

But since some days, it does not work anymore, a double click has just the same effect as simple click : displaying thumbnails of all windows from this application, no more direct switch between them.

Is this a bug of Unity, in this case I'll report it on Launchpad, or a "feature", or a configuration to do in ccsm ? Because I really miss this option now...

Thanks ! Best regards,

Xavier
