Public bug reported: Hello. I am on a fresh install. System Settings -> Appearance -> Behavior -> Autohide Launcher: ON does not work. It does not hide the launcher (it never does no matter where the cursor is). It just makes the launcher's background transparent. My maximized windows do not show at their full, the launcher is always above them, hiding their left part. I tried this http://askubuntu.com/questions/9865/how-can-i -configure-unitys-launcher-auto-hide-behavior/43708#43708 which did not work (did not make the launcher hide or auto-hide) but at least it made my maximized windows not to go under the laucher but to limit themselves until the launcher (so I can see them).
