Description Omer Akram 2010-01-26 11:18:25 UTC 
If I am chatting with two contacts in different tabs and I drag one tab and drop it somewhere It covers the original chat window. It should rather open aside from the original window

this is under empathy 2.29.6
Comment 5 Omer Akram 2010-07-15 12:17:07 UTC 
ping! empathy 2.31.5.1 have the issue too. one may think the tab vanished atleast in those desktop environments where there is no window list, e.g. Gnome-Shell, Unity etc...
Comment 6 Guillaume Desmottes 2010-07-16 09:06:02 UTC 
Yeah that's an annoying side effect of the code remaining the position of chat windows.
