Unity requires restart after enabling "always-show-menus" or LIM

[Alin Andrei]

Unity requires restart after enabling "always-show-menus" or LIM. When I first tested the "always-show-menus" (about 3-4 weeks ago, by using Marco's branch), I don't remember it requiring a restart.

Also, enabling LIM in Ubuntu 14.04 and 14.10 doesn't require restarting Unity but it does with the latest Unity in Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Marco Trevisan (Treviño) (3v1n0)]

Are those the only affected options?

As I can't see how things changed in this area.

I just checked the show desktop, workspaces and the launcher autohide and they work.

However it looks like the scaling factor stopped working. It works for me only after Unity restart.

@Marco: what other features would you like me to test? I can't think of anything else that would require a restart (besides the scaling factor, already tested by Mateusz).

Also, note that I tested this in VirtualBox.
