Huge icons with Apllication Switcher (Alt-Tab) ("Icon", but not "Only show icon")

[Daniel Hahler]

With the option "Icon" set in the Application Switcher General options (but not "Only show icon"), the overlay icons are far too huge.

Without the "Icon" option, or "Only show icon" it looks OK.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Adolfo Jayme Barrientos (fitojb)]

This may be a duplicate of bug #1061037

[Neal McBurnett (nealmcb)]

I see this bug in Trusty, and it doesn't seem like a dup of bug 1061037.
In this bug, the icons are huge and blurry and overlapping. See attached screenshot.

[Zach Dwiel (zdwiel)]

I have this bug after installing a fresh 14.04. It happens in both my user which has old dot files from ubuntu 8.04 and 12.04. It also happens on the guest user.

This bug was fixed in the package compiz - 1:0.9.12.1+15.10.20150805-0ubuntu1

---------------
compiz (1:0.9.12.1+15.10.20150805-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium

  [ Alberts Muktupāvels ]
  * Change icon size back to 48px in application switcher plugin. (LP:
    #1237057)

  [ CI Train Bot ]
  * New rebuild forced.

  [ Dmitry Shachnev ]
  * Move window switcher plugins to compiz-plugins-default. (LP:
    #971051, #1465647)
  * debian/compiz-gnome.gsettings-override: Remove unityshell from
    active plugins, and add switcher. (LP: #1469086)

  [ Eleni Maria Stea ]
  * It fixes the 3d windows plugin. Problem: The 3d clipping is
    performed in viewing space (modelview transformation) and should be
    done inside the shader when we use shaders otherwise the viewing
    space pipeline operations will be ignored. Compiz used to perform
    the clipping inside the td plugin using pipeline functions, then it
    was loading a generic shader program (no clipping operations) to
    render the windows and then it rendered the 3d quads around the
    windows using the pipeline (so these were clipped correctly). (LP:
    #1395697)
  * Sometimes the MultipleCubes, Automatic or OneBigCube option might be
    set although we are not in multimonitor. Modified the 3d windows
    plugin to check the number of monitors as well.

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * Window: add clientFrame(), to get the client-side decoration extents
    (LP: #1422768, #1436553)
  * Window: compute the correct output using the absolute window
    position (LP: #1475721)

  [ Martin Wimpress ]
  * align MATE profile more closely with Marco

  [ Stephen M. Webb ]
  * Fix a FTBFS when -std=c++11 is used. (LP: #1477654)
  * Fixed the Compiz manpage and --help message to agree with the actual
    command-line options supported. (LP: #1475508)
  * force Compiz to build using C++-11 (required by build dependency
    libgtkmm-3.0-1). (LP: #1477978)
