Change "Show Desktop" icon option label when this option is in the state where it will reverse the prior show desktop action.

See: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/966030/comments/19

Thanks!

This is simple enough. It would also be nice if we changed the icon, though i've no clue what it should look like. Its just easier to tell the difference between an icon vs small text.

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.3.1+14.10.20140904-0ubuntu1

unity (7.3.1+14.10.20140904-0ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=low

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * Adjust upstart dependency to upstart-bin. (LP: #1351306)

  [ Brandon Schaefer ]
  * When Show Desktop is active, it will set the tooltip icon as
    "Restore Windows". This is per workspace. So each time show_destop
    bool is updated in PluginAdapter, the Show Desktop icon will update
    its tooltip if needed. (LP: #1237132)
  * Use CONFIG instead of CACHE to store the first_run.stamp

  [ Stephen M. Webb ]
  * update the unity manpage (LP: #1059275)

  [ Andrea Azzarone ]
  * Share lockscreen password entry between screens. (LP: #1308540)

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * IconRenderer: draw count texture at proper scaling, built by
    LauncherIcon (LP: #1353070)
  * LauncherIcon: make the Icon count width depending on the text value
    width (LP: #796527)
  * Lockscreen: scale the UI elements based on current monitor scaling
    (LP: #1292218)
  * SwitcherView: set progress on icon render args (LP: #1361679)
  * SearchBar, ActionButtons, IconRenderer: include the font scaling
    when scaling textual items
