Bug Description

[Impact]

An ugly Panel shadow can be drawn over full screen windows which is visually unappealing.

[Test Case]

1. Enable local menus. System Settings->Appearance->Behavior and then select "In the window's title bar" in the "Show the menus for a window" section.
2. Open an image in Image Viewer
3. Double click the image to full-screen it
4. Move the mouse to the top of the screen to access the controls

[Regression Potential]

None identified.

Original Description:

The shadow of the top Unity panel draws over full screen applications that have controls visible when the mouse is moved.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Open an image in Image Viewer
2) Double click the image to full-screen it
3) Move the mouse to the top of the screen to access the controls

Expected behavior:

Only the image and the Image Viewer controls should be visible

Acutal behavior:

The Unity panel shadow is drawn on top of the controls at the top of the screen

Notes:

This also appears in the Videos application, but does not in VLC or gimp. I believe it is GTK applications with UI elements that only appear on mouse movement (gimp's UI is static, and I believe VLC is Qt based).

Hi,

Thanks for taking the time to enter this bug report.

Are you using Locally Integrated Menus? If so, then we are working on a solution for this.

Yes, I am using the locally integrated menus. Was there already a bug open for this? Sorry if I duped anything. Anyway, glad to know it's being worked on.

Hi Christopher,

Thanks for the update. I don't think there is another bug opened about this. We (the developers) were just discussing this issue the other day, but didn't enter a bug report about it:)
