Right, is hard to click on Trash launcher in this moment, you have to
wait a couple of seconds and then click on last pixel to get Trash
launcher on screen.

Is that affected by the pointer resolution? between a small trackpad and a mouse?
We could either try a custom case for icons there, or a 1 pixel adjustment to icon folding to see if that makes things better

Design team, feel free to chime in if you have a fix for that.

Happens with mouse, touchpad, trackpoint, and graphics tablet.

I'm no longer seeing this with Unity 3.2.16-0ubuntu1, but the launcher
now doesn't fully expand from the bottom (it does when scrolling down) -
see attached screenshot.

Sorry, spoken too soon: still seeing it (16 launchers at 900px height).

[Omer Akram]

Hernando, is this still an issue?

[Gary M]

Still an issue for me, on 600px high screen with added launcher app
items and multiple disk partitions. Bottom launcher item (trash) is not
visible when moving the pointer in on the bottom edge. Subsequent
scrolling is my only workaround atm.
