Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

When using Scale Addons in Compiz Fusion (with Unity running) in Natty, occasionally when there is one window and I activate the scale plugin, the active window shrinks to 0 pixels. It reappears when I exit the scale plugin. Sometimes it doesn't happen; I can't find a pattern.

Changed in compiz (Ubuntu):
status: New → Confirmed

I would really like to see this fixed. Natural scaling makes it so much easier/faster to recognize the individual windows. Please fix this and make it default.

The problem is now that "Window Layout Mode" Natural is broken. There is no differences when "Scale Addons" is activated or not.

Natural means that the windows should have their proportional size from each other.
