Ok Sebastien, 1. Customise your window theme so that your window border is the default 'Human' 2. In nautilus click on a text file so that it opens in gedit 3. Go back to nautilus and click again on the same text file. The first gedit window will get focus and no new copy of the file will be opened
4. Change your window border to another theme, such as Glider 5. In nautilus click on a text file so that it opens in gedit 6. Go back to nautilus and click again on the same text file. A new gedit window will be opened with a new copy of the text file and a warning saying that another copy of the file is already opened. Glider is not the only window border theme that shows this behaviour. Neither opening the file in gedit from cli nor from the Recent Documents menu makes a difference. Nor does it using metacity or compiz. As a side note, no matter what window border theme is in use, if you have a text file opened in gedit in workspace 1, go to workspace 2 and try to open it again, a new gedit instance with the usual warning will happear. Is this an intended behaviour? -- gedit opens two instances of the same file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/209243 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
