Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur) wrote : Application icons should only display windows from the current workspace

Binary package hint: unity

When using multiple workspaces on the classic desktop, the window list only displays windows that are on the current workspace.

When using Unity with multiple workspaces, clicking an icon in the menu to switch windows displays the windows from all workspaces. When managing tasks using workspaces, it is difficult to understand which window is from which task.

Clicking an application icon in the Unity menu to switch between applications should only display windows from the current workspace.
