This bug appears to relate to the "place windows" compiz plugin. I can reliably reproduce this issue by enabling or disabling the plugin.
With "place windows" plugin ENABLED: * rotating the cube to the right will move all maximised windows to workspace 1, once the workspace with a maximised window on it is moved past. With "place windows" plugin DISABLED * maximised windows remain on their workspace when rotating through cube faces. An associated bug is that when the "place windows" plugin is DISABLED, new un-maximised windows are placed on the desktop with their title bars behind the top panel. With the "place windows" plugin ENABLED, new un- maximised windows are placed with their title bar below the top panel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1007976 Title: Windows jump to different workspace when switching workspace To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1007976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
