I recommend Alberts to use nemo 3.18 on ubuntu 16.04 and keep using for several days because I think nemo background is more possible to cover all windows than nautilus background under the management of metacity.
Nemo 3.18 is only integrated with ubuntu 14.04. If it's hard to find a nemo repo for gnome desktop and compiled with ubuntu 16.04 libraries, here is one: http://ppa.launchpad.net/ghostplant/flashback/ubuntu/pool/main/n/nemo/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to metacity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1614050 Title: Window depth order messed up Status in metacity package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using the gome-flashback session with metacity is totally messed up since I updated from Ubuntu 14.04.3 to 16.04.1. All the effects mentioned here do not appear when using compiz, so I guess Metacity is broken. -Windows that should open in front (like Kupfer) appear behind the windows already open. -Before nemo is run, the Ubuntu default desktop background image appear, it can't be changed by settings. I just guess this is due wrong ordering of the true background and some window used by Gnome for showing the selected background. -If nemo is run to take over the desktop, the destkop icons appear in front of all windows. I guess all those effects originate from a similiar reason. None of these problems where appearant at Ubuntu 14.04. This is a total show stopper for using metacity on 16.04 as everyday applications like nemo and Kupfer can't be used.
