[Bug 1426328] Re: Undocking laptop moves windows to different workspaces they were originally

 

Another undesired behaviour:

1. Undock laptop
2. Suspend laptop by closing lid
3. Resume, open screen lock
4. Click on window (maximised, under another smaller window)
5.  Window vanishes
6. Window found on another (one to right) workspace.

Similar click on window (or pick one with Alt-Tab) often causes window
to get lost and only way to find it is to use Super-Shift-w search for
window title. Very annoying feature as work spaces are used just for
optimise each task and now I use more time to hunt "where the window did
go" than is saved by those.

Title:
  Undocking laptop moves windows to different workspaces they were
  originally

Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I use desktop with 2x2 workspaces. As hardware, I use dual-head
  display, i.e. using laptop internal monitor and external monitor
  connected to docking station.

  When I undock laptop, in many cases windows move to another workspace
  they were before undocking. This is a bit annoying as I have windows
  related to each task in their own workspace and I has to move windows
  around each time I undock.
