Thanks for your answer! I don't think this is a good idea, as there are many people who just use one rekonq window, but several desktops (e.g. one desktop purely for browsing). If you don't want any new config options, I would suggest the following behaviour:
- If there is a rekonq window on this desktop, open it there - else use the last activated window (or use the last created window) With your idea, I think we will get a lot of angry users because they are forced to use rekonq in a certain way. If we use my suggestion, everyone who wants one rekonq window per desktop just need to open a rekonq window once per desktop, so they have just a little more work. Regards, Felix Am Dienstag, 5.
