Bug Description

I am using 3 virtual desktops, aka workspaces, each for different purposes (ie. studying, working and free software development).

I like to use sticky notes to quickly type down temporary thoughts. I put different notes onto different workspaces.

However, in case of a system reboot, all my sticky notes are collected to workspace #1, no matter where they were before. Sticky Notes previously put onto workspace #2 and #3 appear on workspace #1.

I could not find any way to move sticky notes between workspaces.

So I can't use sticky notes effectively on other than workspace #1, which easily gets polluted with notes from other workspaces.

I think in an optimal situation it should behave like this: I can put different sticky notes onto different workspaces, and every note stays on the workspace I put it. I also have the ability to send sticky notes from one workspace to another.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Do you get the same with Lucid or Maverick? Thanks in advance.

I am experiencing the same problem. When I restart, all the sticky notes from all the workspaces appear in the top left corner of workspace #1.
