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.

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).

Hernando, is this still an issue?

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.

Confirming, still there.

Now that auto-scrolling is working I doubt this to be an issue anymore, isn't it fixed?
