This is also present in Quantal. This bug needs to get more attention. Some people may need to zoom in on the panel/launcher/dash to be able to see it better. It's also worth noting once again that screencasters may need to use this feature.
** Description changed: Binary package hint: compiz Unity's top panel and launcher are not zoomable when using Compiz's Enhanced Zoom Desktop feature. Futhermore, top panel's shadow creates a visual glitch when zooming (see bug 762247). In Maverick zooming gnome- panel worked well. See attached screenshot for what happens in Unity. + Steps to reproduce: + 1) (Note that this may break the desktop. Use caution.) Open CCSM and enable the Enhanced Zoom Desktop plugin, if not already enabled + 2) Set the zoom in and zoom out hotkeys if needed + 3) Zoom in to the desktop + + What should happen: + All areas of the desktop zoom in together + + What happens instead: + All areas of the desktop except for Unity (panel/dash/launcher) zoom in. Instead, Unity is overlayed on top of the zoomed area. + A screenshot may be seen here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/762699/+attachment/2788578/+files/bug.png - affected Ubuntu versions: natty, oneiric, and precise (as of 2-27-12) + Affected Ubuntu versions: Natty, Oneiric, Precise, and Quantal (as of 09 + Nov. 2012) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/762699 Title: Unity launcher and panel do not zoom alongsize the desktop with Enhanced Zoom Desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/762699/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
