Public bug reported: [Hardy]
When logging out while there are open apps with unsaved data, a dialog should appear with options to save, not save, or cancel logout. This generally works correctly, but the following case always fails for me: 1. In gedit, write some text in a new, unsaved document. 2. IMPORTANT: switch so another app is above gedit, i.e., gedit is not topmost. 3. Start a logout. What happens every time is that 1. gedit flashes in the window list on the panel. That is, it brings attention to itself. 2. However, one cannot click on the panel to get there. Thus, the logout process is paused, but the user can't see why except that something is up with gedit. For a casual user the computer is essentially 'stuck'. What *does* work is to Alt-Tab to get to gedit. This reveals that indeed the logout options dialog was presented. It was just hidden, and inaccessible via mouse operations. ** Affects: meta-gnome2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Dialog for logging out with unsaved data not shown correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207548 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to meta-gnome2 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
