[Bug 150690] Re: Compiz Gutsy : Can't drag a window to another workspace

2009-05-15 Thread Marcus Carlson
I've made a kinda hackish patch that lets you move the window to another workspace (actually its a viewport). Known bugs - The window isn't moved to the same position as the last workspace - No highlight during drag - Probably something more... Note I'm not a C developer and I really haven't

Marcus Carlson : Wow, thanks for your hack! :-) Thought this patch probably need some modifications, if it works, it's already a good step. Can you post your patch on libwnck upstream bug report? That is the right place to discuss about this since GNOME developers are there.

Saïvann Carignan: It surly did need some modifications, in fact I felt ashame of the patch so I had to do a better one ;-) So here we go again, the window is now moved to the right position after the move and won't activate (unless moved to the current workspace/viewport). Very annoying having

Aha. If I understand it correct, a viewport is just a part of a large desktop (vm-spec). But how can the pager display get the number of viewports correctly when drawing the switcher, I might be blind but I just can't find the code that draws ALL (iterating thru the list and calls the

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

I just thought I would make a mock up of a more colourful workspace switcher. Since expo already has the functionality that we want, it must be possible to overlay expo into the workspace switch applet. ** Attachment added: mock up of an Expo type workspace switcher

Hi folks, I've been doing some investigating and maybe you already know this but in libwnck in screen.c the function update_workspace_list this always sets n_space to 1 without printing my warning. From my understanding this goes all the way to compiz land which hacks the workspaces to always be

@paul beardsell: that sets the window manager back to metacity instead of compiz which is why it works again. The 'about' option on the workspace switcher states: The Workspace Switcher shows you a small version of your workspaces that lets you manage your windows. It allows you to do no such

I'm unaware of expo's drag/drop interface, so I can't comment, other than to say I found it REALLY REALLY useful to be able to move windows from workspace to workspace (on or off of the current workspace, for example) before this bug was introduced. Indeed, it _was_ a great way to manage my

I have no idea when this will-be/should-be/was fixed; I'm simply the guy who reported the problem. As a post mortem (if they/you/we are doing those) it'd be great to analyze this bug and see why it has taken so long to get it fixed (esp. since it _used_ to work!) I think it works under at least
