Good afternoon, I have a similar question or concern. I have evolution running all the time on my main desktop (or as all the time as it manages to stay up ...) and I want to be able to open another evolution window, not a whole new evolution instance on another display (tunneled X over SSH). How do I do so? -dkap On Tue, 2007-01-16 at 01:41 -0800, Evan Klitzke wrote:

Hence, I have it set to launch automatically when I log into a Gnome session. However, this launches Evolution on workspace 1, and I like to keep it on another workspace (e.g. workspace 2). Is there a provision for launching Gnome/GTK applications on a particular workspace? I looked at evolution --help-all but didn't see anything that looked promising.I actually figured this one out last night, thanks to a kind soul on #gnome. If you install the devilspie application and add something like this to ~/.devilspie/evolution.ds (if (is (application_name) "evolution") (begin (set_workspace 2) (maximize) ) ) and then add devilspie into the startup programs, it will automatically move evolution to workspace 2 and maximize it. This works with metacity (i.e. not beryl/compiz) only. -- Evan Klitzke <eklitzke lists gmail com> _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list gnome org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
