I can still reproduce this bug on Ubuntu 12.10, gedit 3.6.1, unity 6.10.0. But it depends on how I open the initial instance of gedit:
TO REPRODUCE: 1. Close all gedit instances 2. Open gedit from the Unity launcher (and optionally open some files via File > Open, but it makes no difference for what happens next) 3. Open nautilus and double-click a text file -- it opens in a new gedit instance, whereas I would like it to open in a tab in the existing instance TO NOT REPRODUCE: 1. Close all gedit instances 2. Open nautilus and double-click a text file to launch gedit 3. Go back to nautilus and double-click another text file -- it opens in a tab in the existing gedit instance, as desired Throughout all of this I am only using a single workspace, and gedit is always maximized. So it's a mixed-workflow thing, but I seem to use that workflow pretty commonly... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/777292 Title: doesn't reuse running instance when started from nautilus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gedit/+bug/777292/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
