I witnessed the window control buttons disappearing several times, but can't reproduce it consistently.
Anyway, here is a video of related problems with DND maximizing, depicting the following: 1a. Normal dragging behaviour: from windowed to (semi-)maximized or from semi-maximized to semi-maximized 1b. Odd dragging behaviour: dragging from (semi-)maximized to maximized (cluttered, no orange rectangle) 2a. Normal maximize button behaviour: from windowed to maximized 2b. Odd maximize button behaviour: when maximizing from semi-maximized (should be window button, not maximize button) 3a. Normal window size behaviour: when dragging to and from top panel 3b. Odd window size behaviour: when dragging to and from sides (windowed size changes) ** Attachment added: "Maximizing bugs (12.04 beta).ogv" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/897689/+attachment/3050837/+files/Maximizing%20bugs%20%2812.04%20beta%29.ogv -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/897689 Title: Window control buttons disappear when a semi-maximized window is maximized To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/897689/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
