Bug Description

[Impact]

Regression in launcher / global menu drawing.

[Test Case]

Exit fullscreen mode from programs such as VirtualBox and KRDC the Unity Launcher on the left of the screen and the Global Menu at the top screen both disappear, and come back after clicking with a mouse. Expected result would be that they do not disappear.

[Regression Potential]

None known, draws the menus when full screen app is minimized. Automatic tests included.

---

UPDATE: I have uninstalled the customized version of unity (ikarosdev-unity-revamped) using the following command:
sudo apt-get purge unity unity-services unity-common libunity-core-5.0-5

I then removed the custom unity ppa from my system and proceeded to install the official version of unity 5.6.

I AM STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW:

After upgrading to Unity 5.6 on Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit, now when I exit fullscreen mode from programs such as VirtualBox and KRDC the Unity Launcher on the left of the screen and the Global Menu at the top screen both disappear.

All I have to do to get them to reappear is click anywhere on the screen, which seems entirely unnecessary... I did not experience this behavior with Unity 5.4. Also I am experiencing this behavior on two different laptops that are both running 12.04 32-bit with different hardware and software configurations.

Screenshot is attached.

How is this not something that everyone is complaining about? On literally every Intel based laptop I've tried I am having the same problem, and I haven't tested it on anything but Intel. The only difference is that some computers show the background behind the launcher and the global menu, and some show black bars, but either way the issue is the same on all machines. Am I doing something wrong?

Christopher-

I just thought I'd mention (and I'm sure you are already aware) that this issue still exists even in 13.04 except for instead of a seeing a black screen, the screen of the fullscreen app continues to be displayed until clicking on an active program windows (clicking the desktop, launcher, or global menu bar does not seem to bring the desktop back into display).

Thank you :)

Hi Aaron,

Yes indeed, that is the behavior in the 13.04. I have a fix already on the way for the fullscreen app continuing to be shown (bug #1053895) and I'm getting close to a fix for this particular bug.

Stay tuned!

Christopher-

I went ahead and patched unity and compiz using your code on ubuntu raring 64-bit and it appears to have fixed the issue :)

I really wish I knew how to program... It's amazing that the fix for this bug was just a single line change to plugins/unityshell/src/unityshell.cpp.

The compiz patch you wrote is a bit more in-depth though...

Thanks again!

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.0.0daily13.06.07-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity (7.0.0daily13.06.07-0ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  [ Ted Gould ]
  * gtk_icon_info_free() is deprecated for g_object_unref().
  * Upstart event for when the indicators are loaded by the panel
    service.
  * Add an upstart job to unity-common.
  * Manage Unity Panel Service's lifecycle with Upstart.

  [ Didier Roche ]
  * add dep on autopilot-desktop.
  * Revert the panel on upstart from ted, it doesn't respawn as expected
    when another service try to communicate with the panel service and
    the consequence is a lot of tests failing

  [ Nick Dedekind ]
  * Uses a gobject weak ref to test for object deletion in the
    GLibObject tests. Previously was checking with G_IS_OBJECT on an
    invalid pointer, which was causing a segfault

  [ Manuel de la Pena ]
  * Adds support for payment previews that will allow users to buy music
    from within the dash. .

[ Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre ]
* Increase timeouts for hud functional and search tests.

[ Francis Ginther ]
* Handle StateNotFoundError when querying the label of a hud button.

  [ Łukasz 'sil2100' Zemczak ]
  * Now that we're using the new HUD, there have been some changes that
    typically cause test_hud tests to fail. Fix the tests to fit the new
    model. The first one is that generally we do not have indicator
    entries visible in the HUD anymore. Only application menu entries
    are in it now. The second one - the way the results are displayed is
    different. Now, instead of "Menu > Entry" we have "Entry (Menu)"
    etc.
  * Fix two HUD failures related to HUD slow action activation.
  * Fix some autopilot test failures, some related to test_shortcut_hint
    and some to test_scroll in launcher.
  * Modify all the hud_query_check lambdas to be more smart and error-
    checking. Same for the selected_hud_button method in the HUD
    emulator. Also, get rid of the troublesome test_gedit_undo and
    change it into test_gedit_save, which is easier to test and anyway
    tests what we want. Besides that we also now try to handle the
    StateNotFoundError exception in the HUD emulator, another cause of
    some AP failures.
  * Add a flag for -Wno-error=unused-local-typedefs, since this causes a
    FTBFS on ARM

[ Michal Hruby ]
* Don't activate a result twice after pressing Enter. (LP: #1188191)

  [ Sebastien Bacher ]
  * Use '%s:' string for preview hints, rather than just appending ':'.
    (LP: #1074038)

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * IconRenderer: preprocess an icon if its emblem has been shown/hidden
    In that way we can update its transformation. (LP: #1171476,
    #1171663)
  * UnityWindow: don't draw the panel shadow above a fullscreen window.
    (LP: #1171934)
  * UnityCore: add GtkWrapper to handle GtkIconInfo correctly for
    different GTK versions Fix a memory leak in LauncherIcon. (LP:
    #1180790)
  * SwitcherController: use proper long long types for
    WindowActiveNumber Otherwise an overflow can cause bad window
    selection after long uptime.
  * Unity: "s/unsigned long long/uint64_t/g".

Screenshot from 2013-12-21 01:22:11.png Edit (281.6 KiB, image/png)

I have this bug on 13.10. Version of Unity is 7.1.2.

How to reproduce:
Open video on youtube and use html5 player instead of flash. (youtube.com/html5 to enable it).
Make video fullscreen, watch it for 5-10 sec and unmaximize it. You should see textures of launcher and upper panel don't get redraw. Now you have to click on some of indicators to get it back, or to click Super button and then click left mouse button anywhere.

I attached screenshot.

I can confirm that this bug exists in Unity 7.1.2.

- It happens consistently when I put google-chrome into fullscreen mode with F11 (or watch non-flash videos in fullscreen mode).
- The bug does not appear to affect fullscreen mode in Firefox.
- The bug does affect the fullscreen mode (F11) of evince.

Ubuntu 13.10
Unity 7.1.2
Google Chrome 32.0.1700.107
Mozilla Firefox 26.0
(evince) GNOME Document Viewer 3.10.0
