Thanks for the great extension, the history support really makes a big difference.
A small problem I encountered recently is that after closing the maximized windows, it can not go back to the previous workspace, and I was left with an empty workspace.
So, I wonder if it's possible to go back to previous workspace after the window was closed.

Tested on Ubuntu 19.10 Gnome version 3.34.3

Whenever we try to drag and drop anything, it crashes the gnome shell triggering a log out pop up. I believe the offending line is

I've attached a video to demonstrate it. Basically when you maximise a window on a 2nd display, if it's the only window on that display then it doesn't switch workspaces on your primary display as expected. But if you have more than one window on the second display then it switches workspaces to an empty workspace on your primary display

First of all, I want to thank you for the wonderful extension, and also ask if you could add optional support (for example radio switch) so that if all the windows in the current workspace are minimized, open a new fullscreen window on the same desktop. For me, it would be very convenient. And, of course, leave the current option, and in the settings give the ability to choose users what like best. Thanks for the answer.

First, thank you for the awesome extension. It a must have for everyone. Should be default for gnome.
I'm facing a problem with Telegram. When I receive a media file, like a picture, I open it and extension detects as if it was maximized.
Would be nice to add an exception, but not a big deal. The problem is when I close the media. It doesn't return.

I use Flatpak Telegram. Any suggestion of workaround?

Whilst using the Wayland session with Telegram in Wayland mode, the image preview is recognized as an independent window and as such will move to another workspace, clicking away won't go back to the main Telegram window.

This is a Wayland issue and after talking to Telegram devs they said it's not caused on their side.

Could it be possible to add exceptions to the extension so the preview feature isn't recognized by the extension or maybe force the closing of the preview window to shift back to main Telegram window?

Hi!

I love this extension!
But in Ubuntu 21.04 with wayland as the default display server. This extension not working very well. When I maximized an app. It does moved the maximized app to the new workspace. But when I unmaximized it. The app surely unmaximized, but the workspace is stay there. Not moved to old workspace.

Will there be a support for gnome shell version 42?

Ubuntu 22.04.2
Gnome Shell 42.5

I have use this great extension for quite a while, and really like it. But recently after enable this extension on my new computer with Ubuntu 22.04, the shell always move to a new workspace when I login the system after startup or from lock screen. I have tried reinstall the extension, and disable all other extension, the issue still exist.
Could you give me some help? What might be the causes and how could I fix it?

At the moment only maximized windows are moved to a new workspace, but it would be also very helpful if fullscreen windows are moved too.

I love your work, I found it yesterday, and it has been working pretty well on one display but on multiple monitors there is that issue.

Now I know that that is partly a problem of gnome itself as it only supports workspaces that span monitors.
I am not much of a Java Script guy and I don't even know how to try and fix the issue I am having, but I will take a look later

Every time I log out and log back into the system, there is always an invisible GJS process that occupies one workspace. Even after I kill it in the command line, it gets started again by this script and creates a new workspace for it.

so i use chatgpt to help me for this problem.

// function handleWindowClose(act) {
//   let win = act.meta_window;
//   let name = win.get_id();
//   if (_old_workspaces[name] !== undefined) {
//     win.get_display().get_workspace_manager().get_workspace_by_index(_old_workspaces[name]).activate(global.get_current_time());
//   }
// };


function handleWindowClose(act) {
  let win = act.meta_window;
  let name = win.get_id();
  if (_old_workspaces[name] !== undefined && name !== 'gjs') { // 避免激活 "GJS" 窗口所在的工作区
    win.get_display().get_workspace_manager().get_workspace_by_index(_old_workspaces[name]).activate(global.get_current_time());
  }
}

it seems work well for now.

I use Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS X64 with gnome 42.5
