Description Frederic Crozat 2005-09-02 18:56:20 UTC
Distribution/Version: Mandriva cooker

this is with libwnck 2.11.x cvs HEAD or witn 2.10.3.

to reproduce :
-set focus to "click to focus"
-set task list to "display all workspace window" mode
-set task list to "restore minimized window to original workspace" mode
-open a window in current workspace
-make sure you don't have any other opened window in this workspace (which could
get focus)
-using drag and drop on workspace switcher, move the visible window from current
workspace to another workspace
-then press the button for this window in the task list

expected result :
-switch to other workspace and activate the window

result obtained :
-nothing happens, click on button on task list doesn't do anything visible
-worse, switching to other workspace, application is not visible (which is
contradicting workspace mini view, which shows the application as visible)

after some investigation, in wnck_tasklist_activate_task_window, when clicking
on the button for activating the window, task->is_active is TRUE (which is
correct), causing tasklist to minimize the window (which explains why switching
to destination workspace doesn't display window).

This is a regression from GNOME 2.8 where this was working correctly.
Comment 2 Vincent Untz 2006-02-18 15:15:06 UTC
This is a bug in the tasklist, IMHO. See bug 331661 which has a patch :-)
