Public bug reported:
This happens every time in unity-2d
Situation: One is in a workspace(say "top-right") and in another workspace
there is a window of interest(say a simple gnome-terminal window in "top-left"
workspace).
What to do:
1. Change workspace and then try do come back from there "with" the window of
interest: so "top-right" to "top-left" with the usual Ctrl+Alt+LeftArrow;
2. do not let go of Ctrl+Alt! press Shift key and RightArrow also(so now you
elegantly press Ctrl-Alt+Shift+RightArrow).
Now I expect that the window in the "topLeft" workspace to come back "with me"
into the "top-right" worksp. That does not happen;
Workaround: if at step 2. I let go of Ctrl+Alt and then I press again all
needed keys(the whole elegant combination) I am able to move the window from my
"top-left" to my "top-right" worksp.
Why is this wrong: I do not expect to just move while pressing Ctrl+Alt+Shift
when I know that that is the combination to move "with" a window(if any) - even
if I choose to move around workspaces first(probably I forgot in which worksp.
I left me gnome-terminal window...) and I am to lazy to get my hand of the
keyboard :)
Note:In step 1. you do not need to actualy change a workspace with
Ctrl+Alt+LeftArrow combination(if you were in "top-left" that combination lets
you in the same workspace but at step 2. the problem persists).
Details:
1. lsb_release -rd:
Description: Ubuntu precise (development branch)
Release: 12.04
2. apt-cache policy pkgname:
unity-2d-shell:
Installed: 5.10.0-0ubuntu1
Candidate: 5.10.0-0ubuntu1
Version table:
*** 5.10.0-0ubuntu1 0
500 http://ro.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main i386 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
3. What I expected to happen: I want to move a window to another workspace with
Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Arrow
4. What happened instead: Only the Ctrl+Alt+Arrow was executed(just changed the
workspace, no window moved).
Thanks!
