Public bug reported:
The dot on the right side of an icon in the launcher does not
dynamically get updated when the status of an application changes and
the launcher is open. This leads to situations where the dot appears
next to the application icon when the application is no longer running,
leading to confusion about where the app window is.
Steps to reproduce (on an M10, but happens elsewhere)
Close app apps
Open launcher, start browser, wait for browser to start
Pull in spread from right hand side
Swipe the browser away to kill it
Immediately swipe in the launcher
Expected behaviour:-
When browser is closed, (and thus no browser window is visible) the dot
should disappear from next to the browser icon
Actual behaviour
Web browser icon still has a dot next to it.
Further, if you close the launcher and re-open after a few seconds, the dot
will be gone. So the launcher doesn't update while open, but does update
between each opening.
** Affects: unity8 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Confirmed
