I tried the git version but now it no longer goes to fullscreen.
The title and launcher are still visible during application.

My code.

#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <SFML/Window.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window{sf::VideoMode::getDesktopMode(),"Hello",sf::Style::Fullscreen};
    while(window.isOpen()){
        sf::Event event;
        while(window.pollEvent(event))
            switch (event.type) {
            case sf::Event::Closed:
                window.close();
                break;
            case sf::Event::KeyPressed:
                switch(event.key.code){
                case sf::Keyboard::Escape:
                    window.close();
                    break;
                default:
                    break;
                }

            default:
                break;
            }
        window.clear(sf::Color::Blue);
        window.display();
    }
    return 0;
}

Thanks for the bug report.

It seems that contrary to what I thought before, Openbox was the bugged window manager, and not the others. I just fixed the bug on that same branch: https://github.com/SFML/SFML/tree/bugfix/xcb_dependencies

Try it out again now, it should work properly in Unity as well.
SFGUI # SFNUL # GLS # Wyrm <- Why do I waste my time on such a useless project? Because I am awesome (first meaning).
