Desktop rules with firefox & IE

Postby f066457 » 18.06.2010 04:24:54

Hi

Apparently, desktop rules with IE and firefox doesn't work properly.

For exemple, with this Rule :
Move to desktop2 window containing Google in Title

On Desktop 1, I launch firefox, I tape http://www.google.com, then Enter. Tithe contains "Google" but my browser stays in Desktop1.
If I do a search, Firefox window stays on Desktop1 :cry:
Then, If I click on a result link, Firefox window go immediately on Desktop2...

So, it's working at the second time...

With IE, Window doesn't want to go to Desktop2.

Is there a problem or am I wrong somewhere ?
Thank you. Great soft.

Hi, :dex:

Dexpot only checks the window title when the window is newly created. You can force a re-check using the "Apply rules" hotkey (Settings > Control > Hotkeys > Miscellaneous).

We'll consider adding an option to monitor all windows for title changes automatically.
