thanks for the bug report. Can you please attach a screenshot of the problem?

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

this is rather related to compiz.

[Adrián (jaksi)]

The preview is good, just not the right place.

I add that in the second part of the video where we see that re open the browser window, you see that the browser window is not seen correctly, but this is not a real problem only video

Thanks for reporting this bug and any supporting documentation. Since this bug has enough information provided for a developer to begin work, I'm going to mark it as confirmed and let them handle it from here. Thanks for taking the time to make Ubuntu better!

Hi there,

I'm using Compiz on Ubuntu 12.04 and I too cannot see any preview of minimized windows, only of active ones, which is of course rather useless. I also tried to check the option "Keep previews of minimized windows" in Compiz>Workarounds, but to no avail. I still don't see previews of minimized windows.

I have the same problem.

[Eleni Maria Stea (hikiko)]

This bug occurs in wily as well but not with every minimized window and sometimes with freshly open windows that are not minimized.

[Rodrigo Lledó (rodhos-hp)]

It is not working for me at all. Minimized nor maximized.
Tested in wily.

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