I completely agree with the last few posts. This is a big regression for me.
Here is are two very common use cases which are now greatly hampered. Please put Scale back to normal so that global discovery of windows is possible... Use Case 1 ------------ User is working on word processing in Workspace 1, User is working on email in Workspace2. User has Skype running in workspace 3. User receives new chat messsages from friends while in WS1. Other chats in Ws2 etc etc. Chat messages are now in windows spread across all work spaces. When switching to skype in WS3 - how is the user to find the chats in WS1, W22? This is such a common use case its pretty incredible that the functionality was removed. Scale is by far the best way to find and quickly switch any window. Especially when working across several Workspaces. Use Case 2 -------------- User is giving presentation in Workspace 1. User switches to workspace 2 to do a demo. User opens text editor to show live demo features. User switches to WS1 to show presentation again. User needs to rapidly find editor which was on WS2. Previously a global scale of all windows made presenting/demos very easy. Now the audience has to watch as the presenter gets lost trying to move and search workspaces - everyone looses track. (And using one workspace is not an option - presenter naturally thinks of WS2 as the develoment zone. WS 1 as comms, WS3 as messaging etc etc.) ----- All help to get this fixed in 12.04 greatly appreciated. This regression has been the only fly in the ointment in the move from 11.10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/689733 Title: Application icons should only display windows from the current workspace in the window spread To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/689733/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
