I don't need icons of the programs which are not running on the current

Agreed. Pinned icons should stay pinned (but only have the arrow display
what is in the current workspace). non pinned icons should not be
displayed in a workspace unless it is open in that workspace.
Atleast, it should be an option!

This is also very import to me. It's very important if you have work
spaces dedicated to different tasks.
The extra running launcher icons showing in the launcher makes it harder
to find what you want in the current work space. Clicking to get a new
browser for that work space and getting dragged
As far as i understand, workspaces were meant to achieve two things:
1. Grouping applications (into activities or tasks).
2. Reduce clutter with many open applications.
Hiding only the running emblems takes care of 1, but not 2. The
launcher WILL clutter up. Hiding non-pinned applications will
I agree with Sebastien Bacher, Bazon and Garthhh. Launcher should not
show icons for all open programs but only for those in the current
workspace.
That would help to keep the Launcher tidy and simple to use and also be
more consistent with App Spread and Alt-Tab.
Best way/time to present all
I work much the same way as Bazon.
I share computers with my wife
By agreement the 1st Workspace is always her's, what ever the music player on
the 4th [banshee blows]

by the way, there is a very consistent way:
make as if the other workspaces simply weren't there.
that's the way i would suppose it to be. no icons and no running indicators for
windows on other workspaces.
remember: using several workspaces is useful to avoid distraction from things
going on
PLEASE add at least this option, just as it was for the classic gnome task-bar.
that's exactly the reason I don't use the netbook edition on my netbook:
i'm used to have 6 workspaces (2 private, 4 for my job) and I really like not
being distracted by anything going on on the other workspaces. it
Ok, renaming this one to Mark's comment as showing a running emblem
and commented on the wrong dup.

Please consider the solution proposed in bug #667245. Having a graphical
representation of the workspaces on the sidebar would allow you to group
launchers by workspace AND hide launchers from inactive workspaces
(either when needed or at all times).

Right these are separate issues. One is about which icons get displayed
on the launcher (this one). This should be closed as opinion - we want
to show all the icons on all the workspaces in the launcher. However, we
are evaluating varying the running emblem according to whether the app
is running
I opened a bug for a slightly different issue that is related to this
one (and got duped to this one).
I think the launcher should still display the icons for apps running in
all workspaces, but _clicking_ on a launcher icon for an app that is
open more than once should only display the windows
No, I mean the launcher should have icons only for things running on the
current workspace (the same way the GNOME taskslist does only list by
default what is on the current workspace)

The rational is that some of our users have their activities by
workspace, like one workspace for hacking, one for chat activities, etc.
When you use the computer this way you probably just want to know about
things which are part of the context you are currently in, it's easier
to find your way
We could do this for the launcher icons which are not pinned to the
launcher, but that would mean a slightly weird inconsistency.

I think we talked at UDS about folding launchers who aren't in the
current ws. Thinking about it, it can be weird as when you start your
desktop, that would mean all launchers to be folded. I still agree with
seb that there should be an easy way to discover which launchers are in
your current ws
Sebastian, do you mean that the running emblems should only show for
apps which are running on the current workspace?
