I wonder what's grabbing the Alt key there. I've tried, but wasn't able to break Alt-drag. Some more ideas:
Alt+<right click> opens the window menu, which has an unmaximize option Alt+Shift+<left click&drag> moves the window to snapped positions Alt+<left click&drag> moves the window (for completeness, not new) If none work and you haven't done a lot of customization, perhaps try to reset the metacity configuration: gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/metacity Careful though, this resets hot-keys and theme to their defaults. If this fails too, try (temporarily, for testing) replacing Alt with Super, aka left windows key, gconftool-2 -s /apps/metacity/general/mouse_button_modifier -t string "<Super>" and see if Super+<right click>, Super+<left click>, Super+Shift+<left click> on Onboard does anything. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/859288 Title: full-screen onboard keyboard commandeers entire desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/859288/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
