I'd say this isn't a unity8 bug... More like a qemu one, because it doesn't let you confine the cursor to the VM.
You can reach all the features - launcher (Alt+F1), app drawer (Super+A), switcher (Alt+Tab) using the keyboard. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1661557 Touch tutorial is inescapable on desktop (without a touchscreen) ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Opinion ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: Opinion => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670652 Title: Can't activate edge gestures in a VM Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: In a Qemu VM, the side gestures (for the launcher and app switcher) cannot be activated.
