[Bug 150690] Re: Can't drag a window to another workspace
Sebastien, This bug is marked as affecting nearly 5 dozen people. Some (including me) consider it a regression, as the functionality used to work. It has 12 other bugs (affecting who knows how many people) all marked as duplicates. It was reported in 2007, possibly one or more of the 12 duplicates is even older than that. Who knows. While I guess it's certainly your prerogative to decide to decline to fix this, it really would be nice to see the functionality, or similar, added back into the software. Thanks in advance, and here's hoping this matter can be resolved within the next few years - before its 10th birthday in 2017. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to libwnck in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150690 Title: Can't drag a window to another workspace To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/150690/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

However there doesn't appear to be a clear-cut fix because of how the implementation of workspaces differs from metacity to compiz. (oversimplifying a little but that appears to be the gist of it; please don't take my word on this, however; take a look at the code and make your own assessment - please!) This discussion has been underway for 2.5 YEARS and from a user perspective NOTHING has happened. Well, I've done my best to ensure that this bug stayed open; there is that. I've have coded a fix for it myself if I could see any light at the end of any reasonable tunnel. If the tooltip is removed or amended to say how to move windows between desktops then the new-user damage is removed. I personally think that approach is a bandaid as it doesn't solve the real problem. My take: if you can drag windows using the applet under metacity, you should be able to do so under compiz. That end-user functionality is darn handy, and I miss it. It deserves to work. (there, I said it.) Compiz is simply failing to deliver on the existing workspace API that metacity had implemented. Unlike some other interfaces that were considered standard enough that they had to be implemented, metacity's workspace API wasn't considered a spec that needed to be adhered to. I believe a backwardly-compatibile interface could indeed be implemented but no-one on the compiz team appears to be interested, since not very much metacity code actually needs an interface to workspaces. One possible light at the end of a tunnel just a bit longer than I care to traverse myself is the following. One workable solution would be to code a brand new compiz workspace applet that ignores the current codebase and simply uses the same gesture handling and look-n-feel as the current applet, but interfaces with workspaces in a fully compiz-compatible way like lots of other compiz-only components do. (there are a myriad of effects available for workspace-workspace transition rendering, for example) If I was a college professor I'd have given this to a grad student as a project some time ago. Maybe this message will do the trick, and someone will pick up this ball and run with it? This is a serious reputational damage issue. With that I agree fullheartedly. It's a UI blemish that's really apparent to newbies and old-timers alike. Cheers, allan. Thanks for your support and comments! Hopefully, ongoing dialog will help bring a solution to bear.

On Fri, Apr 9, 2010 at 3:01 AM, wdesmet krom...@gmail.com wrote: This only affects the workplace switcher applet, which I thought windows didn't have? Indeed that appears to have been Allen's point - that workspace switching is something new that you don't see in Windows. Thus, new users try it out and like it and use it and play with all the features. Then they later switch on compiz and it starts working differently and with fewer features. Yuck. You can still move windows between desktops using the option menu or the keyboard shortcut (ctr-alt-shift left/right). (aside: the right-button menu on a windowframe shows _what_ as the keyboard accelerators for moving the window to workspace left/right/up/down? ...certainly not ctrl-alt-shift-arrowkey as you say above, though those DO seem to work just fine, although NOT solve the problem; see below Or just dragging them to the edge of the screen. Both the arrow-keys solution and the window-dragging solution need the mouse to be in the window to be moved. The window-moving-in-the-applet functionality allows _any_ window to be moved to _any_ workspace, regardless of what windows are showing and what the current workspace is. So please don't confuse window control and virtual-workspace-window-management; they're very very different. Not that I don't think it's important to fix something like this (a thousand paper cuts and all that), but there's no need for the hyperbole. The word hyperbole infers that Allen exaggerated something; I don't find that to be the case. Nothing he said was an exaggeration, even his wrap-up that this is a reputational damage issue. It is.

Re: [Bug 516929] Re: Xorg misbehaves when user home directory is missing
Wow... well I was trying to stay away from designing a solution, and stick with describing the problem. But, since you asked, I'll take a stab at it. How about this: A small component named maybe home_dir_check could be added, which would see if the home directory existed or not. If it exists, it can simply exit. If it doesn't exist, it would pop up a dialog box saying so. That dialog box could have two buttons, proceed anyway and logout. If the user chooses proceed anyway it might say Are you sure? You will probably have to kill Xorg from a virtual terminal if you proceed. That second dialog box would have choices really proceed anyway and logout, which would do exactly what they say they would do. Sure there are a lot more fancy things that could be done, but the most useful things (like creating a directory for the user using the same functionality that happens during user creation) would require getting root privs, which might require some capabilities from one of those components that aren't running... yuck... better to stick with something simple. Hope this helps; I'll be happy to work through the details of other options and ideas if anyone has them.

Good question.

Changing the tool-tip when compiz is active (since, compiz breaks the DnD functionality) would then make everything work as expected keep the tool-tips useful for both cases. Yes, changing the tool-tip won't fix the DnD problems when compiz is loaded, but it will correct the problem of the tool-tip telling the user they can do something when they clearly cannot do it. Have two tool-tips: 1 for metacity, 1 for compiz. Tool-tip issue is fixed - reporting correct functionality in both cases. DnD works with plain vanilla metacity; therefore the tool-tip should stay stating Click to start dragging However, if compiz is being used DnD doesn't work, then changing the tool-tip - in that circumstance - is the right solution, as the functionality is not there. Why would you keep a known wrong, easily fixed tool-tip for functionality that isn't there? Some people are used to it - it should not have even gotten to that point. Stealing from your analogy: Just because you're used to the kitchen being on fire doesn't mean it's OK for it to be on fire. And what is the wrong signal? We acknowledge this functionality is broken for the time being; so, we will update the tool-tip to help the user know what will happen with metacity with compiz. Once the functionality is restored the tool-tip will again be changed to help the user know what happens. How is that the wrong signal?

NOTE I've not looked at the code in question - though I plan to - this is just some potential insight into the situation. Seems to me, if compiz was taking over for the other multi-workspace code, it might do just what was observed - force the number of workspaces (from all the other/old codes perspective) to be 1, so it could render its own new-style workspaces into that one old-style workspace.
