Description Frederik Himpe 2008-07-03 21:20:13 UTC

Version:           4.0.84 (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I have 4 virtual desktops configured and have set the desktop grid effect to appear when moving the mouse to the top left corner. Now I start some windows on the first desktop and open the desktop grid by moving the mouse to the top left corner. The 4 desktops are correctly shown: the top left one with the visible windows and 3 empty ones. I select the empty bottom left desktop. Now open the desktop grid again. No windows are shown on the top left desktop, all 4 desktops are shown empty. Go back to the first desktop. The windows are still there, but simply weren't shown in the grid desktop preview.
