Tilda disappears (but still running) if hide/show in middle of windows change (alt+tab) #242

There is a problem if I press the key to hide or show tilda (F1 in my case) during a window change (using alt+tab) in ubuntu. After doing this, tilda doesn't appear again by pressing any key, but it's still running.

I mean, during this process:

alt_tab_end

OS: Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04

This is probably a window manager specific issue, you can compile with the --enable-debug, --enable-debug-functions flags if you are going to look into it.

I've lived with this for ages; it also sometimes occurs when switching viewports, AFAICT. As a workaround, if you open a gnome-terminal, and reload unity, simply: $ unity Then tilda will re-appear.
