"Put" plugin moves windows to wrong viewport

[Pauli Virtanen]

Binary package hint: compiz

To reproduce (Compiz 1:0.9.4+bzr20110415-0ubuntu2 on Natty):

1. Enable the "Put" plugin, and specify key shortcuts for "Put On Viewport X" for different viewports.

2. Press the shortcuts to move two windows to different viewports.

3. Observe that both windows end up on the *same* viewport, although the shortcuts for different viewports were pressed. In fact, all of the shortcuts move the windows to the same viewport.

How it should work: pressing the shortcut should move the window to the viewport the shortcut corresponds to.

There's still some time before Natty is out, but I'll report this just in case.

This bug makes a major part of the "Put" plugin functionality useless, so it would be extremely nice to have it fixed.

Extremely annoying bug that makes compiz more or less useless for my workflow.

[Anto (abourguignon)]

Same problem here. More precisely: all windows will end in the FIRST viewport you've designated via your shortcut.

For instance: I start ubuntu, log in, open a window, and send it to viewport 3 via my designated shortcut (<super><3>). Later, all the other windows will be sent to viewport 3 (regardless of the viewport that I chose).

Very frustrating...

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
