[Bug 939228] Re: Windows randomly changing workspaces when placed against workspace border

 

** Description changed:

- TESTCASE:
+ TESTCASE 1:
  1. Move a window to the far right workspace so that it overlaps the right side of the screen a little.
  2. Switch to the far left workspace where you can see a little of the overlapping window.
  3. Alt-Tab to the window.
  
  Observed: Window jumps to being entirely on the far left workspace.
  Expected: Window stays where it was.

  ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
  For the past week and a half or so, when switching between workspaces, all of a sudden a window gets moved to a different workspace.
  
  For example, I'll have a couple of windows on workspace 1 and a couple
  of windows on workspace 2, and switching between them, all of a sudden,
  one of my windows is now located on workspace 3, underneath the unity
  launcher for no apparent reason.
  
  This wasn't happening a couple of weeks ago, and now happens multiple
  times a day.
