Bug Description
Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS;
Unity: 5.16.0
Compiz: 0.9.7.8;
Ubuntu 12.10
Unity 6.8.0
Compiz 0.9.8.4
What I expect:
Clicking on an open App on the launcher, app gains focus. If the app is on another workspace, Unity switches workspaces.
What I get:
The app gains focus, but the window is moved to the current workspace, sometimes on an off-screen position.
To reproduce:
- Switch to a second workspace.
- Open Empathy.
- Super+ctrl+arrow to put the window to the right
- Switch to the first workspace
- Click on the Empathy icon
The app window is moved offscreen or nothing happens (because Compiz thinks the app is in the current workspace).
Please note than when you Super+ctrl+arrow an application, part of the window (sometimes just a pixel) is placed offscreen, this seems enough to compiz to think the app is on another workspace.
