Description of problem:
When I open a new tab (via right click on a terminal, clicking on something in
liferea, whatever), firefox immediately jumps onto the current workspace.
This is irritating.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firefox-2.0.0.6-11.fc8
Additional info:
Seems related to the startup notification patch, as it worked ok in
2.0.0.6-8.fc8.

The issue in this bug only occurs when there are multiple workspaces.
Removing this Firefox patch would be a regression in the single workspace case
because it would require clicking on a flashing browser entry in the task list
after activating an external link.

Pidgin seems to be one of the few applications where the application relied on the behavior of gtk_window_present() bringing windows to the current workspace. On Compiz it seems to have the same behavior, which is interesting, because before Compiz and Metacity differed on the gtk_window_present(), so there must be some Pidgin-specific differentiation occuring somehow. Anyways, since the Firefox patch was removed before Fedora 8, there isn't much point to having this patch in Fedora 8 either. I will remove it and add an update. We will figure out how to fix Firefox and Metacity together for Fedora 9, and update them in sync.

Any policy decisions on what that means for pidgin are squarely in the realm of the window manager, desktop environment, and user preference. So again, pidgin itself relies on no specific behaviour out of gtk_window_present other than that of 'presenting the window to the user'.

Removing the patch to metacity (see above) works only if you are not using compiz. The same annoying behavior now effects compiz (intrepid). I really don't understand the logic here. We have a blinking notification saying click here! click me! so you do, and seemingly nothing happens. For tomboy, you click the always present tomboy icon, select a note, and expect it to appear, always, period. This is enough to make newbies think Linux is totally broken and go back to Windows. *** sigh *** Related bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/217462 https://bugs.launchpad.net/tomboy/+bug/263656 PLEASE BRING BACK THE SANE BEHAVIOR OF ALLOWING WINDOWS TO SWITCH TO THE CURRENT DESKTOP ** Also affects: tomboy (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I realize this thread a bit stale, but this very topic is now being discussed at bugzilla.gnome by both metacity and pidgin devs. As one of those pidgin users that absolutely hates this new behavior, and wishes it worked in Ubuntu as it always did, I would be most grateful if someone from here could be there, to see if there is not some reasonable way to restore that behavior (so clicking on a buddy, warps the conversation window to the Buddy list's workstation and activates it) The discussion is toward the bottom of this thread at gnome: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482354 And my original discussion with pidgin people here: http://www.nabble.com/Lost-workspace-function-with-Ubuntu-Hardy-tt18352855.html#a18462577 -- Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 207744] Re: Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops
Similar here... Now, in hardy, clicking on the icon doesn't move pidgin to the current desktop nor does it switch to the desktop pidgin is on (as the previous poster noted). Same for buddy list or flashing icon to show chat window. So, to find a new message in an existing chat window, I now have to manually switch to the desktop the chat window is on; same for the buddy list. Quite annoying and frustrating :( Seems to be a side effect of an Ubuntu added patch to metacity: 011_gnome_482354_attachment_104591.patch ... see: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482354#c46 Also, this got filtered to Pidgin's own tickets, in a bit of a heated argument: http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/5521 IMHO, the patch was a mistake, but not everyone will agree :) To recompile metacity w/o the patch: $ sudo apt-get install build-essential devscripts fakeroot $ sudo apt-get build-dep metacity $ apt-get source metacity $ cd metacity-2.*/debian/patches $ rm 011_gnome_482354_attachment_104591.patch $ cd ../.. $ debchange --nmu remove 011_gnome_482354_attachment_104591.patch $ dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc -rfakeroot $ cd .. $ sudo dpkg -i metacity*.deb Restart GNOME, and volla, pidgin window focusing and workspace switching works again. ** Also affects: gaim via http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/5521 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Also affects: pidgin via http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/5521 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Also affects: metacity via http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482354 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Another option is to patch Pidgin to hack around the changes made to metacity... Pidgin bug 5521, above, has an example patch on how to do this with the Buddy List (assume a similar patch is needed for the chat window). I think if Ubuntu keeps the metacity patch intact, it should then patch Pidgin to avoid this regression. -- Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 207744] Re: Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops
FWIW, since the Ubuntu patch was released I've just modified my behaviour to click on the pulsing entry in the task bar instead of the tray icon. I agree with the arguments on the Pidgin bug about not fighting the DE, and it not really being an issue with Pidgin per se. I guess what we want is for Metacity to provide for applications to say Yes, I really do want to warp workspace/move my window here, which Pidgin could then implement/pref as necessary. For my particular use case - switching when someone messages me - I'm pacified by the patch as is to not consider this a major usability issue. That's not to say that I don't see the value in modifying Metacity. Often I want to click on a tray icon to (say) switch to Rhythmbox which is up in another workspace, but this doesn't work, as an irritating side-effect of this patch. The current behaviour is OK, but IMHO it should only last for as long as absolutely necessary until a better solution can be found. -- Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
