Don't know if this is relevant. Any workspace I try this from give the same result, even an empty workspace

Yes.

No, only after a while. I can open several applications without the problem and then suddenly it happens.

No, but it happened a few times with Eclipse. I've installed the version from their site, not the version from the repositories. I've also created a custom right-click menu for it: ~/.local/share/applications/eclipse.desktop. I've attached it.

While experiencing this problem I logged in as a guest. I set the launcher to auto-hide, opened a program using a launcher right-click menu and tried the<super> s technique stated above. The launcher appears when the workspaces are exposed, but once I select a workspace the launcher disappears. When I logged out and returned to my original desktop, the problem remained. So the problem seems to be specific to the user.

My problem too. It's intermittent, can't find a way to replicate it, it just happens when it feels like it. I can however confirm that once it happens it does not go away until I reboot. I'll reboot and try a few more ways to replicate the problem again, but before I do so is there any log files or setup files I can attach to assist?
