Description of problem: You can use SHFT-CTL-ALT-<[left|right] arrow> to move the currently focused window from one desktop to the next, but it (often) doesn't work on the initial attempt. Strangely, you often need to use CTL-ALT-<[left|right] arrow> twice (once to move to another desktop, and again to return) before SHFT-CTL-ALT-<[left|right] arrow> works. I suspect that the application is grabbing the keystrokes and that the move from one desktop to another and back releases this and allows the SHIFT to 'hold' the window. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): compiz-0.0.13-0.32.20060817git.fc6 How reproducible: Frequently. I works some times, other times it doesn't. Steps to Reproduce: 1. At various moments try using SHFT-CTL-ALT-<[left|right] arrow> the currenly focused window to another desktop. If often doesn't come without the hack above.
I can't reproduce this, does it still happen with the latest compiz and X server? Have you noticed anything special when this happens, is there some kind of pattern?
This seems to have resolved itself. I can't trigger it in any case.
