Unity Panel and Launcher disappear when "Snap windows back to Original size" option from grid plugin is unchecked

[Ferran Sabate-Garriga]

For reproducing this bug in a system that starts without problems with unity and compiz, you have to do the next actions:

1.- After starting, open CCSM and select to set up grid plugin.
2.- Yet in grid plugin screen, you have to uncheck the "Snap windows back to Original size" option.

Then the Unity crash and unity panel and Launcher dissapears. After, if you restart your system the same happen, that is, there are more no unity panel neither Launcher.

I think, this bug is related with another one I upload a month ago, which is Bug #880128. The same problem happens nowadays. If you push Ctr-Alt-KP9 to adjust a windows to the top right corner and after you change to another viewport using "expo plugin" then the windows previously adjusted is showed in the 'new' viewport. In fact, the window is showed there but it is not there, since you canot access to it. The same happens with Ctr-Alt-KP7, Ctr-Alt-KP1 and Ctr-Alt-KP3. The problem doesn't happen with Ctr-Alt-KP6 and Ctr-Alt-KP4
