Shreenshot of the described behavior
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '17'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Description of problem: When using Win+arrow keys for manipulating windows (possibly inadvertently), a semi-transparent half-screen rectangle, normally serving as a preview of the position when manipulating windows with the mouse ("magnetic" positions), appears randomly, and can only be removed by slightly moving any window with the mouse; I suspect this behavior, besides being annoying, might also add to overall instability of Gnome Shell Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.4.1-5.fc17.x86_64 How reproducible: Fairly regularly Steps to Reproduce: 1. Move an application window arouond with Win+arrow keys 2. Continue working with Gnome Shell, preferably on multiple desktops Actual results: Semi-transparent rectangle appears at random Expected results: No such behavior Additional info: When testing, use multiple desktops; the phantom rectangles appear on all of them, independent on which the original movement with keys started
