Remember "Always on Visible Workspace" for applications across sessions
Feature summary
It would be great if this option would survive applications starts.
This is also common in other Desktop environments like Mac OS/X (right click on an app icon Options
> Assign To
gives the options All Desktops
, This Desktop
or None
— where None
is the default).
How would you like it to work
The UI stay like it is now. But the option should be persisted per application.
In OS/X activating this option for the Finder leads to the situation on having all Finder windows on all desktops. So this would lead to consistent behaviour.
I propose a similar approach for GNOME.
Furthermore I added a comment to a corresponding os-mockups
issue.
PS: Other people also seem to like this, for instance
- People wanted this on Metacity already
- People are asking for this on askubuntu.com (i.e. 1, 2, 3 or 4)
linux-window-session-manager
seem to be intentionally support this- People on XFCS want this (and are doing it with
wmctrl
?) - People wanted this even over a decade ago
- or people on linuxquestions.org
- or the folks at ubuntuforums.org
