RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
Dragging Application icon from Favourites bar to spawn application in a new workspace will not spawn new workspace but spawn the application in existing workspace.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-shell-3.28.3-5.el8.x86_64
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have gnome session (non-classic) under wayland.
2. Add application to Favourites (gnome-terminal in my case).
3. Drag icon of application from Favourites bar over the first workspace.
4. Repeat from 3.
Actual results:
First drag will be as expected, new drag will not spawn new workspace but add the new application window to the first workspace.
Expected results:
All drags spawn new application window each in their own new workspace ABOVE the existing ones.
Additional info:
If I am located in a workspace where the application is not spawned (Terminal window in first workspace, I am in the second), the drag above the first workspace will spawn new application window BELLOW the first workspace even when I wanted it above.
We have a test for spawning 30 new workspaces each with new application window. Is this behaviour intended? Or is this considered bug?
This test was successful in x11.
