C de-Avillez (hggdh2) wrote : miximised window controls only visible on active (focused) window

Dual-monitor setup, under Nouveau. If I have two maximised windows, one on each terminal, only the focused window shows the unity overlay window controls (close, minimise, maximise).

This means that the inactive window first has to acquire focus; only then we can operate on the close/minimise/maximise.

Easily repeatable with a dual-monitor setup. Note that this bug does not exist on single-monitor setups -- or, rather, it is not at least easily visible.
