Public bug reported: (I'm talking about the "Keyboard Shortcuts" window and its workspace switching functions here, not sure what package they belong to - metacity?.)
There are two kinds of workspace functions: "move window ..." and "switch to workspace ...". When I "move window one workspace to the left", it moves the window AND switches the desktop. When I "move window to workspace 2", it only moves the window; it doesn't switch the desktop. I think the two should do the same thing (probably switch desktops in addition to moving the window), as their names suggest that they do. (Gnome 2.16, Ubuntu 6.10.) ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Gnome keyboard shortcuts for switching workspaces are ambiguous in functionality https://launchpad.net/bugs/98514 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
