I just built a new FC10 system. When I open gedit, it always stays in the current workspace. No matter what method I use to switch workspaces, and if it is the forground task or back a few, it moves with me.
Very annoying.
I did have this once before on another FC10 system but I did not figure out what I did to get it to stop.
So how do I stop this bad behavior?

Select gedit. Click on the title and unselect "Always visible on current workspace". You must have accidentally enabled it. Happens.

Thanks all! This was it.

No. This is how it worked 'out of the box'.
Now it IS possible that the first time I ran it was from a terminal window:
gedit file &
Rather from Applications>Accessories>Text Editor

Just a guess, but check the window menu, accessible via Alt-Space or clicking on the application icon at the left of the title bar (by default, anyway). If the setting for "Always on visible workspace" is selected, change it to "Only on this workspace" and see if that helps.
