Bug Description

Hi,

My Unity-2d is autohiding (manybe this is the default settings - however I updated from 11.10). This is working well, but after a few hours of usage, this functionality is simply stops working. So there is no autohide but the maximized windows still enlarge to fit the space under the Unity. Because of this behavior I am not able to reach FIle menues of maximalized windows. What do you think why autohide stops working?

Combination of bug 940590 and bug 943296 I hope. One fixed, other in progress, will hopefully cure this for you.

Dear KAMI,

Do you still experience this on an updated precise?

If so, then please mark as duplicate of Bug #940590 because this is probably it.

Thanks and Blessings,
Shahar

He might still experience it, 'cause the fix isn't yet released. But it should be, soon.

Can you update now to precise (should have unity-2d 5.10) and tell us if the bug is still there?
