I’d like to be able to click on an open application in the dock in a space where it doesn’t have any windows open and have it foreground so I can open a window in that space. Currently it switches to a space where the app has windows open, or perhaps it’s the “home” space of the app. I believe I could do this in Snow Leopard. Clicking on the app again when it’s already in the foreground without windows open in that space would then switch the space to the App’s space.
So:
App in background in space with no windows open
1 click brings app to the foreground without changing spaces
another click (when app is in foreground) results in space change.
OK, some more testing revealed the switching behavior is only happening for some applications. TextWrangler seems to be the most well known culprit. It must be doing something different I guess.
