Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 85194
OOffice violates proper display behaviour (desktop leaking)
Last modified: 2008-02-13 12:56:08 UTC
Original report can be found here: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155550 Start KDE, login, run OOffice-Writer, start new session, login as the same user, run OOWriter, OOImpress, OOCalc. Nothing? Logout. Now you will find all those apps running fine at the first session.
hmmm, simply another "one instance per user"-Issue... @tm: Do you know an Issue we had before? this is a duplicate... :(
I can only judge by what you wrote, but from "one instance per user" is not 100% accurate. I can run several instances, without a problem, but not in different sessions. All of them go to DISPLAY 0.
Hi macias, AFAIR the problem is that only one instance per user is ossible... This instance may show several windows but AFAIR only one binary is running... adding mci to CC...
Mci, thank you for the comment -- it should be quite possible to run OOWriter on DISPLAY 1 and OOImpress on DISPLAY 0, right? The simplest case of all possible. Anyway, "stealing" instances (i.e. I launch program, but it goes to another session) is the worst scenario here. Even refusing launch and showing an error dialog would be better. Of course, I wish, I could run several instances of the same app from the suite:-)
AFAIR all applications of OOo are the same binary... ==> it's not possible to open Writer on DISPLAY1 and Calc on DISPLAY0 being the same user... :( @tm: please correct me if I am wrong... :) @macias : which OS do you use ? I assume you're using Linux... Please switch OS type from all to your OS... thanks...
TM->MCI: Yes, your completely right. This is not a defect. So I'll set this issue to "invalid" and close it. TM->macias: Please feel free to file an enhancement with your wish for a change in OOo's behaviour. Thanks !
