Issue 593 in xmonad: moving a gimp window to another workspace problem

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 593 by wrob...@gmail.com: moving a gimp window to another workspace problem https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=593 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Start Gimp on workspace 1. 2. You shall have two Gimp windows - toolbox and image. 3. Move image window to workspace 2. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expect to have toolbox window on workspace 1 and image window on workspace 2. Instead, both windows end up on workspace 2. Having these two windows on separate workspaces is useful when working with two monitors. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? xmonad 0.11, ghc 7.8.4, Linux. -- You received this message because this project is configured to send all issue notifications to this address.

Comment #1 on issue 593 by allber...@gmail.com: moving a gimp window to another workspace problem https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=593 If Gimp is using a Gtk+ palette window, you don't have any say about what workspace it is on; it will be moved with the main window. You *may* be able to explicitly move the palette window to another workspace (assuming they use EWMH and not native X11; in the latter case it will be override-redirect and xmonad and other window managers can't control it at all), but don't be surprised if Gtk+ moves it back with the main window at some point. (One of the annoying things about the EWMH spec is it explicitly takes control of this kind of thing away from the user and gives it to the program.) -- You received this message because this project is configured to send all issue notifications to this address.
