The same problem appears when I open a file in Gedit with gksu, eg. "gksu gedit /usr/share/applications/gedit.desktop". See screenshot. Using sudo is no problem, though.
Gedit 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 Unity 5.12-0ubuntu1.1 Ubuntu 12.04 ** Attachment added: "gksu gedit.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/gedit/+bug/965510/+attachment/3162433/+files/gksu%20gedit.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/965510 Title: option --new-window not working correctly Status in Light-Weight Text Editor for Gnome: New Status in “gedit” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: First, to reproduce, open Gedit (Text Editor). Right click on its icon in the Unity Taskbar. Oddly, clicking either of the two new options (create a new document or open a new window) opens a new window with two tabs, labelled Untitled Document 2 and the other one Untitled Document 3. What should happen is one new tab is opened when creating a new document, and one new window with one tab is opened for opening a new window. However, the aforementioned happens. I will upload a screenshot ASAP. I am running Precise Beta with the latest updates, and the latest version of Gedit.
