[Bug 740104] [NEW] Windows appear in the window list on adjacent workspaces

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

I have 6 workspaces arranged in a line from left to right, with various
windows open on each one.

After upgrading to Natty, I found that the window list on the bottom
panel started to behave strangely: it lists some of the windows from
adjacent workspaces. For example, I have Gwibber open on workspace 2,
but it appears in the window list for workspace 2 AND 3. A nautilus
window open on workspace 4 is showing in the window list on workspace 5
where my browser is. X-chat from workspace 2 appears in the window list
on workspace 1.

This seems to happen when the window is near the edge of the screen, but
doesn't affect all windows. Dragging the window to the center of the
workspace makes the problem go away for that window. If the window is
maximized, unmaximizing and then maximizing again will make the problem
go away for that window.

In the attached screenshot you can see X-chat open on workspace 2, but
appearing in the window list on workspace 1.
