Evaluate the _tuple_ [ X11 Screen | virtual screen ] of requesting in kate's initial code trying to identify _which_ instance of kate is running on the same X11 Screen. Two humble questions, for example: A) https://cgit.kde.org/kate.git/tree/kate/main.cpp#n325 ff // prefer the Kate instance running on the current virtual desktop ??? Does KWindowSystem::currentDesktop() respect Multiple X11 Screens? B) https://cgit.kde.org/kate.git/tree/kate/main.cpp#n334 ff // query instance current desktop ??? Does QDBusConnection::sessionBus() ? ??? Which sessionBus() ? Always that from Screen_0 ? Compare --> "B" in https://github.com/awesomeWM/awesome/issues/1759#issuecomment-298374308 . P.S.: WONTFIX is o.k. for me ... Thanks for answering! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
