Problem with workspaces in compiz

I'm running compiz fusion standalone with tint it seems to me there are some "strange" things happening when moving applications between workspaces - or just switching from one workspace to another.

For example, let's say I have a browser open and I "send it to another workspace" - when I switch to that workspace is not there anymore - in fact is not on any workspace, although is still open (I still see it in the system monitor).

On the other hand, the applications from all desktops appear in tint no matter in which workspace I am - even after chenging panel_mod to single_desktop.

Thus if I send an application to another workspace by right-clicking and selecting "send to another workspace", it "dispappears" - I can't see it in any workspace - but when I just open applications in various workspaces I see them everywhere (in all workspaces) ...

The same thing in openbox works as expected - so it seems to me it is a compiz problem?

Re: Problem with workspaces in compiz

I think compiz introduce some confusion between viewport and workspace.

check http://code.google.com/p/tint2/wiki/FAQ
->" Tint2 doesn't work on compiz correctly?"

You were absolutely right - that's what's causing the problems.
