full screen wine apps do not work under unity, but work under classic mode

[Josh Leverette]

when attempting to play games in full screen the launcher hides itself due
to collision, but will pop out if you move your mouse over there, and the
bar at the top is completely oblivious to anything having changed.

yes the unity is 3d by default so i am probabbly using 3d unity.
what are you using like 2d or 3d???

[Josh Leverette (coder543)]

The problem occured under 3D. I will have to experiment again when I get the chance. Also, you were testing a full screen 3D game, correct? Not minesweeper?

The problem seems to occur when wine changes the screen resolution for the full screen game. I was playing max payne and I found that if I set the game resolution to 1680x1520 then the problem didn't occur but if I played the game at 1024x768 the Launcher was visible next to the game the entire time. Also if you change the desktop resolution to 1024x768 before starting the game and set the game resolution to 1024x768 the problem doesn't occur. So it's gotta be something with wine changing the screen resolution at the start...

I think this is probably a duplicate of bug 734908.

[Omer Akram (om26er)]

thanks for the bug report. Is that still an issue in Ubuntu 12.04?

[Human (bob-igo)]

It is still an issue in Ubuntu 12.04 because it just happened to me, and I found this bug while researching a fix.
