Re: Firefox migrating between desktops

Postby Guest » 30.03.2011 02:41:13

Okay, this is Roger again, I'm trying Dexpot yet again. It looks to me like the "desktop preview" box (which I really really like) may be the culprit for things wandering around my desktop. I click on a particular desktop using it and what is in that desktop goes somewhere else, or is copied to two other desktops. Looks totally flaky to me at this point. It is disturbing and I really don't see how anyone uses it to switch virtual desktops, which is what I assumed that it's intended for. It has acted the same way for me on both Windows 7 and Windows XP, so I don't think that it's just me. It would be really nice if that worked right for switching desktops, but it just doesn't for me.

If I'm missing settings for "desktop preview", please tell me, I'd love to know. I've been through the settings very thoroughly, but could have missed it or them.

I'm trying the taskbar desktop switcher ("taskbar pager") instead, which I don't like nearly as much, but hope that I'll get used to. When I click on a workspace, nothing leaves the workspace so far, no migrations or copies to a couple of other workspaces yet. So I'll give it a try and see how it goes...maybe this is what everyone uses for switching workspaces, but it is very linear, I like the matrix nature of the "desktop preview" box a lot better, and it allows me to have more desktops without crunching up my taskbar.

Anyways, if you guys can do anything to make the "desktop preview" thing more stable, it would be really appreciated by us users out here *smile*.

Thanks.

Have you tried using the simple WindowKey-Q list to switch around. That works for me.

Hi Fred,

It isn't so much just switching desktops that's a problem, I need a global view of what's on each desktop that's visible all the time, and can also be used for switching desktops. The Desktop Preview was great for that, just didn't work very well for switching desktops. On the other hand, for Windows 7, using the "taskbar pager" also accomplishes that. The problems are that it crowds my taskbar, and also limits the number of desktops that I can have without starting to have to page taskbar icons. With the Desktop preview I had 12 desktops, and for the taskbar pager if I have more than 9 desktops my taskbar icons can't all be in taskbar at the same time. And, as I said, it is very linear. But the taskbar pager is visible all the time, and seems functionally solid so far (one day *smile*). So I'll continue to use that, hopefully at some point the Desktop preview will be better.

In case you're interested, the reason that I use so many desktops is that I have 3 large apps up all the time (MS Outlook, Firefox, and Internet Explorer), plus remote desktops to other Windows systems that come and go (I need to reserve 2 desktops for those, since each takes a full desktop), and several desktops with putties to various local systems for the various things that I do. And I like to have 1 or 2 spare desktops that are usually empty for use when I'm doing screenshots or installing new software, etc., transient tasks that take desktop space but I don't want them on top of anything else. It all adds up...I'm making do with 9 desktops right now *smile*.

Thanks for the suggestion, though, I appreciate it.

Now that I'm using the "taskbar pager", just a suggestion for a very useful, simple feature...or maybe it's already there and I'm just not seeing how to turn it on. Anyways, if hovering the mouse over a desktop in the "taskbar pager" would bring up a bubble that says "Desktop 1", or "Desktop 2", or whatever the desktop name is, that would be helpful. It doesn't matter for just a few desktops, but when you get up to 9 desktops, it would be helpful to keep things sorted out in my head. When I use desktop numbers most is when I use the right-click menu to move a window to a different desktop, which is done via desktop number. So making the desktop numbers easier to get at would really be helpful for that.

Thanks for all your help.

Don't want to drive you nuts, but the problem disappeared again. I did not reboot, but did close Firefox and reopen. I wonder if there's some dexpot index thats getting hosed up?

Thought the problem might have something to do with opening a child firefox window (a popup) and moving it to Desk1, leaving the main FF on desk 2, but tests don't confirm that.

Oooo, just found that the taskbar pager can have 2 rows, that's much better...teensy weensy, but it uncongests my taskbar a bit. Which is good for Windows 7...the taskbar is where a lot of action is.

Thanks for that one.

Just wanted to follow up and say the fixed Dexpot file you sent seems to have cured that unwanted 'migrating' window problem. It hasn't been happening at all, so I just thought of it.

Wanted to make sure the fix gets included in the next release.

I installed dexpot today and also experienced firefox jumping between dexpot windows. In my case I think it was because I had firefox active in one window and thunderbird in another. When I opened a link in an e-mail firefox would open in the thunderbird window. If I tried to close firefox in the thunerbird window it would close firefox it in both windows. I ran the fix dexpot.exe - now a new firefox session is opened in the firefox window, instead of opening a new tab. Also, occasionally firefox is also open in the thunderbird window. Whilst I was writing this I received an e-mail which caused the dexpot to immediately switch to the thunderbird tab - I may be able to work round this or live with it, time will tell.

I've been having the same problem at home for quite sometime, and I don't know for sure, but it often seems to involve FireFox... I'm not sure if that's because I had a lot of FireFox windows open, or it's just an issue with Dexpot and FF working together, but I have 4 virtual screens, and I'll often end up with copies of FF windows on multiple screens, and I'll drag them back to where they're supposed to go using the taskbar pager, and they might be fine for a while, then later I'll switch between desktops and they'll either follow me to another desktop or already be there (as I can see their shape in the taskbar switcher) before I switch desktops. I love this program, but that is one constant annoyance to an otherwise excellent program. I keep hoping that maybe one of the versions will fix it, but no luck so far... I just installed 1.6.7 build 2249 this evening, so maybe this one will be the winner. :-)

Nope, still the same issue. I love the program, but this bug drives me nuts!

My log file is below... Here's what I did to reproduce it. I had Dexpot running as administrator with 8 virtual screens under Win7 Ultimate x64, and running the plug-ins DexControl and Taskbar Pager. From my main screen, with a bunch of Firefox windows on various desktop (and even a couple rules to try and put them on the screens I want them on, since they kept moving around), a couple Thunderbird windows, a couple cmd prompts, and a Steam Window, I hit Windows+L to lock the screen. Then logged into a different account on this system (using fast user switching), I opened a couple windows under that account, then closed them, then Windows+L and locked that session. When I logged back in to my session, there were copies of most of the Firefox Windows on my main screen. Sometimes when this happened (and this was one of those times), when I clicked on those windows that shouldn't have been there, they disappeared and went back to where they belonged, but they don't always do this. At this point, I stopped the logging and wrote this post. Here's the log... Thanks for any help/fix you can provide. :-)

Thanks. I was able to reproduce the problem by locking the session the way you described. Please try this version:

I'm seeing a similar problem, but it's not happening on screen lock, and it's not isolated to Firefox. I often see it when I'm viewing a window in a desktop and then press 2-3 keys in a row to move to another desktop. I then see the original window appearing in multiple desktops. I see it in both the preview and taskbar views.

I'll attach it, but Sebastian already looked at it, and didn't see anything significant. This is an excerpt, showing the last few thousand lines.

Can you tell me what time it happened and with whitch window? What does "press[ing] 2-3 keys in a row to move to another desktop" mean exactly?
