Title: Child Windows [of Synaptic/update manager] should remain in the same desktop as the parent window Status in Compiz: Confirmed Status in One Hundred Papercuts: Invalid Status in The synaptic package manager: Confirmed Status in Software Updater: Confirmed Status in “compiz” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “notify-osd” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: At present, the behavior of synaptic manager/update manager is huge disruption to workflow> To recreate: Select to update/install software in desktop 1 , now while the downloads and installation occurs Switch to a different desktop > On completion of the process the child windows pop-up in the user's present desktop[just to inform completion or error] and grabs focus , instead of remaining in the desktop 1 The problem with this is: 1: The child window very much disturbs the user's work by grabbing attention from the user's work[comes to the foreground] 2: The child window doesnt show up in the window list 3: If the users switches to his work , and later tries to return to the synaptic/update manager in the desktop 1 , the child window is not there! And therefore the synaptic/update manager cannot be closed without closing the child window [which is complicated by the child window not being displayed in the window list] so he has to search where the child window is beneath all his work windows and has o check all the desktops! To have an acceptable behavior : 1: Child window ALWAYS remains in the same desktop as the parent window[since the parent window is displayed in the window list]. 2: Should not grab attention from the user's work. [Instead ,optionally , a simple Notify-osd Bubble saying "Installation Done/ Updates finished/Error" can be displayed.] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/391479/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
