Bug Description

Hi

Description: Ubuntu 10.10
Release: 10.10
unity-2d:
  Installed: 0.4-0ubuntu1~bzr443
  Candidate: 0.4-0ubuntu1~bzr443
  Version table:
 *** 0.4-0ubuntu1~bzr443 0
        500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/unity-2d-team/unity-2d-daily/ubuntu/ maverick/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

What happened:
When I pressed the super key and then a number from the keypad unity didn't show the application selected. However when doing this same but pressing super and a number above the letters it worked fine.

What I expected to happen:
When using the numbers on the keypad they act the same way as the numbers above the letters. Therefore showing the window selected.

Hope this bug can be fixed soon.

NOTE: I am using Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick PPA with Compiz

Hi Andrew
On consulting with design, the Super+number keypad will have a different purpose. Therefore I must mark this bug as Invalid.

Hi Andrew,
we re-consulted with design on this again, and they agree it's clearer to have Super+numpad work as Super+num.
Reopening, and patch on the way.
