Windows controls fail

Just installed 13.04. Windows controls not working. Some element in the desktop is not listening to the kill, down and expand buttons. Since these are normally programmed to be interrupts and not ignored, what more can be said?

Work around is to use other controls. Something to be said for redundancy.

This change was made by a bot.

Further to this, it seems this only happens on maximized windows.

Can you still reproduce this?

Since I am now running 14.10, I don't see any point in pursuing this. It must have been a one-time hiccup and there are too many variables to get a handle on it. Please close it.
