Description Benjamin Berg 2012-09-15 09:51:44 UTC
Every once in a while I see the workspace switcher popup jump to the left/right. It seems to me like its x (and y?) position is not correctly updated when it is resized because workspaces are added and removed.

I can easily reproduce it here when I have five workspace open at a time. I do the following only using keyboard shortcuts:
 1. Place two windows on the last workspace
 2. Switch workspaces a couple of times (just to make sure the placement is correct)
 3. move one of the windows down to create a new workspace.
 4. go two workspaces up
 5. watch closely, at the second press the switcher popup is centered again and jumps to the right.

I'm quite sure Giovanni fixed this when he introduced MonitorConstraint. Does this still happen in gnome-shell 3.6?

Hm, true. Looks like the patch from bug #679005 addresses exactly this issue.
