Bug Description

Binary package hint: compiz

Ubuntu 10.04.2 clean install
If i get window too far under- it closes witch is not so good couse it closes without asking about saving.
Therefore is needed that it jumps back up just about so u can get it back.
Power user knowing shortcuts for resize and move or right clicking in panel to click on options resize or move would get it back but since some might not use panel and shortcuts they cant get it back if it hides.
In video u see i tested with VLC and Transmision- since they have TaskIcons in panel i can get them back.
After video i tested in Gedit with some text unsaved. And under panel it closed without asking saving. BUT opening new Gedit it shows its Unsaved Document 2 so 1st somewhere still exists..
BUT if i do the same sliding to Left. it closes but using Super+A and clicking that window I got back window.
And on right side well then its on 2nd workspace.

Hello,
as part of the bug clean up ahead of 16.04 LTS I'm marking this as invalid because it affects an Ubuntu release which is now unsupported. If you can still recreate this bug in a supported release please do open a new bug and we can triage it for consideration in the 16.04 LTS development cycle.

Regards
NickTh
