Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

I just installed Natty and am using unity.

When I invoke compiz's scale plugin, I use the arrow keys change my selected window. Most windows show a large shadow behind them so you can tell they are selected. However, maximized windows do not. This makes it very difficult to see which window you have selected.

Workaround: Use CompizConfig-Settings-Manager to enable Scale Addons and enable "Draw window highlight" under Appearance.
