Ubuntu 11.4 and Unity
« on: April 29, 2011, 01:16:20 pm »
Hi,

Enyone have experience with new ubuntu interface? I upgraded my ubuntu today and notify some strange behaviors:
1. Ubuntu have some new dynamic scrollbars. They are showing in code editor and in compiled applications but they don't work well. They don't scroll when I move them by mouse (only mouse wheel work and click on scroll arrows)
2. Sometimes when I run my apps, status bar disappears and show again few seconds later.

Ubuntu still using GTK 2.32 but unity interface is very young so maybe it is buggy. I switched unity to classic mode but this same problems.

Regards

Can you scroll your code in code editor? Mouse wheel and arrows work fine but moving - not. Scrollbars should work like in TMemo

Hi, Mario


Unity tray have "white list". You must manually add your app to this list or unlock tray by this command in terminal:
Code: [Select]
gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Panel systray-whitelist "['all']"

The new scrollbar don't work on Object Inspector properties/events and Menu Icons disappear.
If I maximize Lazarus Components Window, I get a transparent gap between the window and the menubar.

Hi, i am on Ubuntu 12.04 with Unity and Lazarus 0.9.30.4.
When you minimized a form, the event OnWindowStateChange never gets fired, so this code does not work:
Code: [Select]
procedure TForm1.FormWindowStateChenge(Sender: TObject);
begin
  ShowMessage('Test');
end;
only works when you maximize or return to normal the window.
On windows it works as expected. Am i doing sometihing wrong?

If i use "Gnome Classic" session then it works, so it is a Unity problem , when you minimize it just hide the form and not minimizing it?
Thank you.
