I use virtual workspaces in Gnome, and the default version of Libreoffice used to work fine. If I opened a spreadsheet on one workspace, then went to another, and used Calc’s File->Recent Documents list to bring it up, Calc would switch to the workspace that spreadsheet was in.
Then I “upgraded” to a more recent version from one of the Libreoffice’s PPAs. Now, Calc seems to have lost that ability.
If I open a spreadsheet and forget what workspace I left it in, I’m screwed. Going to File->Recent Documents and selecting the spreadsheet does nothing. I have to manually go through each workspace until I find the spreadsheet.
