Francis Ginther (fginther) wrote : new windows open below panel and launcher (raring staging ppa)

Autopilot runs are hitting issues with test_panel and maximizing windows [1]. While investigating I found that new windows are incorrectly placed below the panel and launcher. I haven't yet determined if this is also the root cause of the autopilot test failures.

Tests are being run with ppa:unity-team/staging, my results were reproduced with 6.12.0bzr2947pkg0raring0 on a raring virtual box vm.

[Test case]
Open a gnome-terminal window

Observed result: The window will appear below the panel and launcher. The window's title will be completely below the panel.
Expexted result: The window should appear so that no portion is below the panel or launcher.
