I have Show Desktop locked on my launcher, and I can't appear to unlock it. Nothing happens when I right-click it unlike with other applications. Is there a way to unlock it from the launcher for example by using the CLI. Is there a simple way to do this? Also, presumably this is some sort of a bug so is there a way to report this? I've only had Ubuntu for a few days :x
My version: Ubuntu 16.04
The solution isn't really intuitive. In both your 16.04 version and 14.04 click on the Settings icon in Launcher. Then select Appearance. Then pick Behavior tab. This screen will appear:
mark the check box beside Add show desktop icon to the launcher
Took me a year to stumble across it myself :)
