I am running GNOME 3.22.2 on a recently installed Debian 9 system. When I have a process, an xterm or emacs for example, in one workspace and then switch to another workspace and click on the emacs or xterm icon, I get kicked back to the first workspace. I did discover that if I do that to an xterm a little dropdown appears at the screen top. When I select the dropdown the menu item "new" appears among others, and when I select it I get a new xterm instance. However, I stilll have to drag it over to an empty workspace indicator in the workspace list in order to get the new xterm where I want it. I recall having this problem in my Debian 8 laptop a couple of years ago, but I found a menu entry for "classic GNOME" somewhere, and when I enabled it I got the desired behavior -- I could spawn as many instances of a terminal, emacs, or whatever as I wanted. How can I get similar sane behavior with GNOME 3? Thank you. _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
