Description: Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch)
Release: 15.10

I expected the prefrences window to come up when right clicking on the plank icon for plank. Instead I get no window when plank is autostarted through being the defualt dock in default apps for lxsession. If I start plank through the run dialog in lxpanel and then click on the prefrences icon plank will have the prefrences window show up and I can adjust settings on the dock.
