I second Daniel. This is fine with desktop/laptop/tablet, but unintuitive for phone use (staged mode). The launcher takes ~20% of the screen in portrait mode, and then it feels awkward when you can't dismiss it.

Test case: 1. Open an app. 2. Open the launcher swiping from the left. 3. Close the launcher without triggering any touches in the app. Expected: Tapping outside the launcher will close it without touches reaching the app. Observed: Tapping outside the launcher closes it but unwanted touches reach the app. You can close the launcher by swiping it back off the side, but it's too small to do that very easily without also accidentally touching the top-most app. To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1607185/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
