Linux. It's all about LIES AND DENIAL. 4611

I'm using 1.3 (or whatever the current one on SuSE is), not 2.

Here's what the rules appear to be, on KDE on SuSE 9.1 or 9.2.

1. If you try to open a document, and OO is not running, it opens on the current desktop.

2. If you try to open a document, and OO is running on another desktop, and it has a blank document on that other desktop, you are switched to that other desktop, and the window that had the blank document opens your document.

3. Same as above, but the document on the other desktop is not blank. Then, your document opens in a new window on your current desktop.

Hence, to get it so I can leave a copy of OO running, so it will open things fast, but also have it so they open on whatever desktop I'm working on, the procedure is to open the writer or the spreadsheet on some other desktop, either on an existing document, or type something in the blank document so it is no longer blank. Then I can leave those there, minimized or not, and go work on my other desktops.
