Greetings. I set up the Cupertino layout on one of my smaller computers for the first time last night, and I like it. I have now tried to set it up on my main PC, but the Plank dock is not working properly.
I have set it to be “Transparent” with “Icon Zoom” on, yet neither of these work.
Perhaps I need to reinstall the desktop 1.14 or something? I’ve done a computer restart and update.
Can anyone help? I have MATE desktop 1.14 on 16.04.01 (exact same as my other PC where it worked).

I thought it might be related to the new MATE Dock Applet, but uninstalling that didn’t help.
I’m not using Cupertino, but am using Plank. I’ve deleted the bottom default MATE panel. My Plank is configured transparent, bottom, auto hide, fill. This morning I found this entry in syslog …
org.mate.panel.applet.MultiLoadAppletFactory[4783]: ** (mate-multiload-applet:4955): WARNING **: Failed to get pixmap 16779554,613,0
Since the release of 16.04.1 I’ve only performed 1 manual software upgrade as I’m now relying on Software Updater
I have rectified the problem by toggling and changing my compositor.
