Travis (Watkins): compiz may have used workspaces in the default config when you made that comment, but it seems to use viewports now (in Gutsy). Almost nothing in Gnome handles viewports directly (eg, task switcher applet (because of libwnck), Workspace switcher applet).
So if you turn on the Desktop Plane Compiz plugin and set up key bindings, those bindings switch viewports within your existing workspace. Yet dragging windows between workspaces in the Workspace switcher applet moves them between workspaces, not viewports. This disconnection is confusing at best. If Compiz had the ability to use workspaces 6 months ago, is it possible to just make that the current default? Is that configuration option still available and functional? -- Use workspaces instead of viewports by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/74767 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
