I've just switched from Gnome to xfce, and I'd like to know how to stop the active window moving when I change workspace. e.g. I have my internet browser selected then change to another workspace, the workspace will change but the internet browser will also move to that new workspace.
Is this supposed to happen? Is there a setting somewhere I can use to stop it?
This shouldn't happen if you move to the other workspace from the workspace switcher (top right usually). Make sure your window is not defined to appear always on the visible workspace (main window menu in upper left corner of the window title bar). (the right setting for what you want is "Appears only in this workspace").
See also if the window isn't fixed (appears on all workspaces). This is applied when you click on the small left icon (pin or cirle usually) on the window title bar next to the "main window menu" (with maximize ... close) in the corner. This button is not always there as it depends on themes and config.
