This was filed against Metacity, which was a part of Gnome 2. Gnome 3 has replaced it with Mutter. Is this still an issue there or is this being caused by another package, GTK+ for example? ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Milestone: None = raring-gtk -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213432 Title: gtk_window.present() doesn't work if the window is already on another desktop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/213432/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

This is an upstream bug is is caused by the change made to fix https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482354 like you initially thought. The message there says to open a new bug if you disagree with the change so I guess the next step is to open a new upstream bug report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213432 Title: gtk_window.present() doesn't work if the window is already on another desktop -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Chris For example, try Getting Things GNOME (apt-get install gtg). Open a task, move that task to another desktop and try to reopen that task from the main view. Nothing happens. Other example: gwibber from the MeMenu. Open GWibber on one desktop. Switch to another. From the MeMenu, choose micro-blogging. Nothing happens. There quite a lot of examples here and there, I could try to list them but I'm not sure it is useful. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213432 Title: gtk_window.present() doesn't work if the window is already on another desktop -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I think it would be good to get some attention onto this bug, even if it's only long enough to diagnose the cause and record it here.

[Bug 213432] Re: gtk_window.present() doesn't work if the window is already on another desktop
This bug still exists. To reproduce I went into System - Preferences - Appearance - Visual Effects - None Opened Nautilus and went into Edit - Preferences - Behaviour - Open folders in separate windows I opened my home folder on desktop #1, and then opened my Music folder contained within. I moved my Music folder to desktop #2 and returned to desktop #1. I attempted to reopen my Music folder by double clicking on it in the window containing my Home folder. What happened was that the desktop did not switch from #1 to #2, as it should have done. Lionel, you say that other apps are affected by this. Can you please give examples, complete with steps to reproduce this behaviour? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213432 Title: gtk_window.present() doesn't work if the window is already on another desktop -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

argh! I was testing with compiz as WM. yes , when we set metacity as WM , this is an issue. @ploum: Not sure why you think this is an Ubuntu specific change though. Is there a mention in the changelog somewhere? ** Description changed: Very fresh bug in nautilus 1:2.22.1-1ubuntu3 in Hardy. It was not present before the last upgrade so I assume this is an Ubuntu bug, not an upstream one. - - To reproduce : + To reproduce [disable compiz and use metacity window manager]: 1) Switch nautilus to spatial mode 2) Open a folder XX 3) Change desktop (ctrl+alt+arrow) 4) Try to reopen the same XX folder by clicking on its icon What happens : 5) Nothing What should happen : 5) The window XX already opened on the other desktop should switch to the actual desktop.

Vish there's no upstream bug because it's not an upstream bug. It's an ubuntu specific bug that was, AFAIK, introduced for Firefox. Also, I don't see how the bug has been fixed.

Vish I reported the bug to papercut because every application that use the gtk.Windows.present() function is affected. That means nearly every gtk applications. I encounter that so often that I don't even remember the applications. (only exception : tomboy, that seems to work around it).

[Bug 213432] Re: gtk_window.present() doesn't work if the window is already on another desktop
Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu install, that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be addressed as part of this project. - @Lionel Dricot : Why was the papercut task opened? this bug was initially opened for nautilus spatial mode not switching desktops when reopening the window. This now works. [thought spatial mode is not the default setup] What is the bug here now? could you update the bug description accordingly.

Adding papercut project has it affects the usability of nearly all applications, not just nautilus spatial. As having multiple desktop is the default, it's annoying to have some applications that doesn't work because, in fact, some window are already on another desktop. In the default installation of Karmic, Empathy is affected as you cannot open a conversation if this conversation is already on another desktop. -- gtk_window.present() doesn't work if the window is already on another desktop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/213432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
