I am confirming the same problem as in #38 and #39. The bug still persists and it is very annoying. I am running Ubuntu 14.04.3 with VMware Workstation.
When I have a VM running full-screen on one monitor and I switch focus to a different window, the Unity top bar appears over the full-screen VMware Workstation. Switching the focus back to the Workstation does not resolve the problem. Only switching it from full-screen and then back helps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/748539 Title: Multi-monitor - Panel and launcher visible on top of multimonitor non- focused fullscreen apps Status in Ayatana Design: Fix Released Status in Unity: Fix Released Status in Unity 6.0 series: Won't Fix Status in unity package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: unity See the attached screenshot. When an app is fullscreen (fullscreen, not maximized) on a monitor, but another program is focused on the other monitor, then the unity panel is displayed at when it shoudn't be. I appreciate this probably isn't a priority, but for a future release it would be good seeing as it's the little details that matter. ------------------------------ Desired solution: - When an app is fullscreen (fullscreen, not maximized) on a monitor, but another program is focused on the other monitor, the unity menu bar should not be displayed on the monitor that is displaying the fullscreen app. - When fixing this bug, also look at bug #1065425 WORKAROUND FOR THIS BUG: Turn "Always On Top" on via right-clicking the titlebar of your window, before making it go fullscreen. This will prevent the Unity panel from rendering on top of this fullscreen-window, when using the other screen.
