cinnamon grouped window ordering

Post by jdratlif »

When I have several windows open in the same application (e.g. alacritty or VS code), and I go to select one by hovering over the icon, at first they appear in the same order that I opened then. But sometimes, they appear in a different order.

Is the order random, or am I doing something without realizing it to change the order? If I've done something, what can I do to reorder the window selections?

Thanks.

Hello. My thinking on this is that the grouped windows order does not change much at all on LM 19.3. Maybe that is the case with LM 20.* also, but I'm not sure. The reasons for an order change are not known and are considered a minor bug by some people.
