OpenOffice Calc doesn't show up in the alt-tab window switcher
I just upgraded to ubuntu 12.04, and it's mostly working. My biggest problem so far: OpenOffice/LibreOffice Calc doesn't show up under the task switcher.
When I pres alt-tab to change windows, I can see all my windows except for any OpenOffice documents I have open. If I minimize other windows, then I can get to my Calc documents, but Alt-Tab just doesn't work.
It only seems to be a problem with Calc. Writer and Impress both work fine.
I do a lot of work in spreadsheets, so this is really messing up my flow. Any thoughts on how to fix it?
This is a known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/942222. On my machine, however I can't reproduce it, and libreoffice appears in alt-tab switching...
I had the same problem with LibreOffice Writer. To solve it I just restart Unity by opening a terminal window and entering: unity --replace & disown
. Hope that works for you.
