Comment 2 Christian Neumair 2008-07-23 09:30:28 UTC 
Confirming. Thanks for your efforts. 

The basic idea looks fine, but I'd prefer another approach which does not require us to depend on libwnck:
 src/file-manager/fm-desktop-icon-view.c:net_workarea_changed()
can be used to track changes of the current desktop workspace.
Comment 3 James Sharpe 2008-07-23 11:06:09 UTC 
Does net_workarea_changed also work for viewports instead of virtual workspaces? I'm not really familiar with the EWMH specs to really know what all the terminology means.

Review of attachment 115053 [details] [review]:

I'm not sure that overall there's a consensus to have this kind of feature in Nautilus, but if we do, we should update this patch, as nautilus-directory-background.c doesn't exist anymore in git master.
Comment 5 Cosimo Cecchi 2012-05-04 18:28:01 UTC 
It looks like we won't get this feature after all. Closing as a duplicate of the original report.
