Okay, so I've found some other people who've had this problem... So you all know that it's not just me.

Turning them + off fixes it. However, this is still certainly a bug and shouldn't be + left alone. When I move an application window to another workspace, it doesn't show up on the workspace preview panel. When I go to that workspace, however, the application window is there, but the preview of the original workspace disappears. This doesn't always happen, but usually the problem is fixed by restarting my computer. This doesn't seem to be the case anymore; I can't fix it. When I move to a workspace that has stuff on it (I can't tell until I move to it) everything reappears -- fades in as I have the visual effects on Extra. This shouldn't be happening, obviously. And I know this isn't a normal thing, so there must be a conflict with something else, I imagine? (All windows also "reappear" -- although they're already up -- when I do a Ctrl+F Find in a cell of Calc. That's just weird. Additionally, sometimes when I click to switch to a workspace, I become trapped on that workspace, unable to switch as both top and bottom panels have disappeared, as well as the files on the Desktop.)
