clicking on the tray icon and virtual desktops

[Lucas]

I'm often using multiple desktops, and the way clicking on the icon works isn't very intuitive. Clicking should always change the state (visible/not visible) of the window on the current desktop. this doesn't work if : - on desktop 1, you make it visible - your switch to desktop 2 - you click on the icon (actually, when you first clic, the window is

made invisible on desktop 1, so I have to click again to make it visible on desktop 2)

(Gossip has this problem too, and I think it might be hard to fix ;)

some code:

# Note: interning atoms avoids X server roundtrips
_NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP = gtk.gdk.atom_intern("_NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP")
_NET_WORKAREA = gtk.gdk.atom_intern("_NET_WORKAREA")
def get_current_workarea():
    root = gtk.gdk.screen_get_default().get_root_window()
    prop = root.property_get(_NET_CURRENT_DESKTOP)
    if prop is None: return None
    propname, proptype, propvalue = prop
    current = propvalue[0]
    prop = root.property_get(_NET_WORKAREA)
    if prop is None: return None
    propname, proptype, propvalue = prop
    return propvalue[current*4 : (current + 1)*4]
