slangasek | smspillaz: a late change in raring reverted a substantial patch to the constrain-to-workarea handling in the place plugin; I blame this change for my windows flying around between workspaces again today | 00:51 |
smspillaz | slangasek: which windows ? | 00:51 |
slangasek | all of them ;P | 00:51 |
smspillaz | slangasek: steps to reproduce ? | 00:51 |
slangasek | smspillaz: that will take time to determine | 00:51 |
smspillaz | slangasek: the change that was reverted in raring at least was to do with windows which give themselves a StaticGravity position hint | 00:52 |
smspillaz | I didn't read the specification exactly right and thought StaticGravity was to do more with placement than it was movement and resizing | 00:53 |
slangasek | smspillaz: well, literally every window on my desktop wound up jammed onto a single workspace after some desktop resizing today; firefox, gnome-terminal, evince, etc | 00:53 |
smspillaz | slangasek: I can give it a brief look if need be | 00:54 |
slangasek | smspillaz: well, even explaining how I triggered it is cumbersome - feel free to ignore me until I have a chance to actually reproduce it | 00:54 |
smspillaz | slangasek: coolio | 00:55 |
smspillaz | slangasek: is that currently blocking the branch review at the moment? There is no rush, was just wondering | 00:55 |
slangasek | smspillaz: not at all | 00:55 |
smspillaz | okay cool | 00:56 |
slangasek | just an ironic coincidence that it happened to me just as I was starting to review | 00:56 |
smspillaz | heh | 00:56 |
smspillaz | slangasek: ah, just noticed that you finished the review :) | 00:58 |
smspillaz | slangasek: quick manual testing on trunk seeks to indicate that everything is working fine. | 01:05 |

spindritf | hi, after upgrading to raring the scroll (edge scroll on the touchpad) doesn't work on the unity task-bar(/launcher/whatever-it's-called, the one with the large icons of running apps) | 12:58 |
spindritf | how do I reenable scroll there? | 12:58 |
spindritf | scrolling* | 12:59 |
spindritf | that's the right channel to ask, though, right? | 13:05 |
bregma | spindritf, yes, it's the right channel to ask | 13:28 |
bregma | and it looks like there may be a bug there | 13:28 |
spindritf | bregma, as in: it used to work for you, now it doesn't but it wasn't meant to be removed -- that kind of bug? | 13:34 |
bregma | I don;t know if it ever worked for me, but I think it may never have been meant to be removed | 13:35 |
spindritf | ok, against which package should I file it? | 13:35 |
bregma | Unity | 13:35 |
spindritf | thanks | 13:35 |
bregma | soem changes went in to the Launcher scrolling in 13.04, that may have somehow gotten dropped | 13:36 |
spindritf | oh, one more thing -- what is the proper name of that thing, Launcher? | 13:36 |
bregma | yes | 13:36 |
bregma | if it's no longer supposed to work that way, the UI designers will say so on your bug, and then we'll know for sure | 13:37 |
spindritf | the move-the-cursor method of scolling is very annoying because if you move it foo far up, you leave the Launcher and then it closes | 13:39 |
bregma | currently, the touchpad edge-scroll acts like a mouse wheel and tries to switch between windows in an active application... it's a little unexpected | 13:40 |
spindritf | oh, yeah | 13:40 |
spindritf | so it will probably stay that way... | 13:40 |
bregma | I think the UI designers need to comment on that | 13:40 |

spindritf | ok: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1173623 ; thanks, bregma | 14:00 |
ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1173623 in unity (Ubuntu) "Scolling doesn't work on the launcher" [Undecided,New] | 14:00 |
spindritf | there used to be a setting for launcher in 11.10 iirc, something between hidden and visible -- it was visible until a window tried to use that space, what was it called? | 14:04 |
spindritf | ducking? | 14:04 |
spindritf | no | 14:04 |
spindritf | dodge | 14:04 |
spindritf | another victim of simplification | 14:05 |
