Bug ID: 447538
Summary: On Wayland, Kate doesn't prefer opening files in an
instance on the current virtual desktop
Product: kate
Version: Git
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: a.samir...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Basically the code uses KWindowSystem::currentDesktop()[1] to check which
virtual desktop you're on, and if there is a Kate instance running there
already open the file in it, and if there isn't it starts a new instance then
open the file with it.
The issue is that on Wayland currentDesktop() always returns 0, so the logic
doesn't work, opening a file with Kate could end up opening that file on an
instance that's already running on a different virtual desktop.
