Most of the time when a global menu is being used (as in an item has been clicked on to reveal the options below it), pressing the Alt or Super keys do not open the HUD or dash. But when the menu is closed, the hud or dash will flash on for split second and then close again. It is expected that they will open even when a global menu is active. This is not seen with a local menu, such as with LibreOffice's default. I have observed a different behaviour that occurs in a minority of cases when opening the HUD with a global menu active, if you get that bug instead. It's the HUD opening below the menu and not accepting input. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/978630 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/978626/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : dx-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
