2012-06-05 06:05:30 Daniel van Vugt description When I switch desktops (no matter if using hotkeys or using unity desktop switcher at the launcher) and a maximized window exists on the desktop that gets the focus, that window is pushed to the foreground/front even if another window was the active one when I left that desktop the last time. Steps to reproduce: a) start two applications (e.g. LibreOffice and Nautilus, Firefox and Nautilus or whatever). b) Maximize one of those windows. c) Switch to the non-maximized one (bring it to the front). d) Switch desktop. e) Switch back to first desktop. Actual effect: Maximized windows is put to front Desired effect: Show desktop in exactly the way as it was before switching desktop. Reason: User in first reaction is missing the window he/she was using before. ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: unity 5.12-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.39-generic-pae 3.2.16 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-24-generic-pae i686 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu8 Architecture: i386 CompizPlugins: [core,composite,opengl,compiztoolbox,decor,vpswitch,snap,mousepoll,resize,place,move,wall,grid,regex,imgpng,session,gnomecompat,animation,fade,unitymtgrabhandles,workarounds,scale,expo,ezoom,unityshell] Date: Mon Jun 4 15:12:53 2012 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release i386 (20120423) SourcePackage: unity UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) Clicking on the unity panel should never change which window is focussed. However if you have a small window in front of a maximized window, then clicking on the blank panel area (to the right of the smaller window's menus) causes the maximized window behind it to be raised. This is clearly wrong, because the panel has the title for the smaller window at the time. So clicking on the panel should never cause a different window to be raised.

However when you set this particular binding, the click event is acted upon AND passed to the window at the top edge of the screen. So the problem is that the click is not consumed by the wall plugin. It should not be passed to the window below.
