           Summary: Can't set virtual desktop per application anymore
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-x11driver
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: willie at froq.net


Was this feature deliberately removed? I have a few applications that only 
behave correctly in virtual desktop mode (apps with child windows that are 
always on top otherwise, therefore hiding file requesters and dialog boxes), 
yet most apps work perfectly without that option. But it seems impossible to 
activate virtual desktop mode only for specific applications with current Wine 
releases, which is quite a let-down - starting winecfg every time I want to 
use an affected application to switch on desktop mode, enter the desired 
resolution, and deactivate it again once I close the app in question is 
cumbersome and seems unneccessary. It's not even possible to force desktop 
mode for a specific application using regedit.
