Re: [Bug 914874] Re: gnome-terminal follows me when switching workspace

 

DITTO.
It is a shame, this bug persists for so long   -   2+ years is waaay too 
long.
That's exactly the reason why I'm sceptical about Mir - Canonical are 
not capable of solving bugs in reasonable time frame - Mir will never 
become stable.

Title:
  gnome-terminal follows me when switching workspace

Status in Unity:
  Expired
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Normally I use 2 gnome-terminals ...
  If I switch workspace view with a keyboard shortcut - everything is Ok.
  If I switch workspace view with Unity bar shortcut, most of the time, both gnome-terminals follow to the new workspace.
  Note 1
  Actually, they do not really follow, rather they are pictured upon the desktop. If I click a desktop icon (that cannot be seen as it is hidden below the gnome-terminal, but I know where it should be), an aproppriate application launches.
  Note 2
  It is very possible that if I switch back using keyboard shortcut, at least one of the terminals stays active on 'that' workspace.
  As opposed to said in note 1, when switching back, the terminal 'really' becomes active on that workspace.
