Fedora 5: auto-hide of bottom (application window applets) edge bar, moved to right edge, sometimes not working
Last modified: 2007-05-26 11:45:52 UTC
Please describe the problem: When I want to move the window of an application to the front, for instance Mozilla Firefox, and when there are two windows of this application, we are presented a choice between the windows this application has opened. When the edge bar is positioned on the right side AND has the auto-hide property set, I can click on either choice, even if the mouse is not more above the edge bar itself. Clicking causes then, of course, the application's chosen window to appear to the front, but the edge bar will not hide itself. Only when clicked on again by the mouse (for instance on the active workspace in the workspace switcher, in order to not disturb the windows) will it go hiding afterwards. Steps to reproduce: 1. Put the 'bottom edge bar' on the right edge of the screen. 2. Open two instances of (for instance) Mozilla Firefox. 3. Make sure, by running enough applications, that there's no space for two application buttons of Mozilla on the edge bar. 4. Minimize both windows. 5. Unhide the edge bar by putting the mouse pointer on the far right of the screen. 6. Go to mozilla's application button. A list of options as to which window to activate will appear. 7. Move the mouse over one of the presented options, then move it left, while keeping it on the option, but away from the edge bar. 8. Click on the opted-for window button. 9. You will see the edge bar unhidden, while the mouse is not above it. Actual results: See above. Expected results: Clearly the edge bar should hide after step 8. Does this happen every time? yep Other information: no
