Bug Description
A related bug report is here:

Since that one was already closed and I can't change the status of it, I report this problem here.
Also here:

compiz: 0.9.11+
unity: 7.2.0+14.
If disabling "Show live previews of windows in switcher" in ccsm (Unity Plugin --> Swither), minimize a window (let's say firefox or gedit), remaximize it. Then if I want to click somewhere or select text in the window, I have to put the mouse pointer one line above and several charactors left (compared to the real position I want) to do it.
However, if enabling "Show live previews of windows in switcher" , then you cannot use the hot corner to "Show Desktop" (ccsm-->General Options-->Key bindings-->Show Desktop). Set it to BottomLeft (any corner that's not conflict with other key bindings), with "Show live previews of windows in switcher" enabled, you can just use the hot corner to show desktop for once. Then if you check the Show Desktop setting in ccsm, it will be blank (not None but blank, nothing there). You can't use the showdesktop hot corner any more.
This problem started from 13.10 and continues now in 14.04...
