Now that the Bug #1159249 is resolved for both 14.04 LTS and 15.04 I think this bug should get at least a higher priority.
Some users already hit this bug and they were even convinced that HUD never worked on top of fullscreen windows. This is thread from Development Version section of Ubuntu Forums. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2273486 Obviously there were be many more users hitting this bug now that HUD actually works on top of fullscreen windows. Also there are at least three very popular games that use Alt key in their default setup for something. Those are Torchlight and Torchlight II (display of items) and apparently Dota 2. Workarounds for users involve disabling HUD entirely or disabling it before launching the game and then enabling it again after. This is of course very user unfriendly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1167453 Title: Apps should have a way to disable HUD To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hud/+bug/1167453/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
