Plugin "Switcher" (compact mode and windows list menu), incorrectly displays the number of desktops.

Hello,

Thank you for this screencast.
What's your WM? Compiz I guess... Which version?
Is it better after having click on Refresh (right click on switcher applet / Switcher / Refresh)

Thx.

Compiz-0.8.6
Clicking on the Refresh doesn't help.

I suspect that this error to blame Compiz. I remembered that had a similar problem without cairo-dock (with standart Gnome pager applet after installing Compiz).

Sorry for my English (google translate).

don't worry, every contribution is really welcome.

google and youtube seem to do really good job, so please continue

Point the errors with the red mark, and show different cases where it apply or doesn't is good. But little faster would be better in my opinion.
Questions help after to track the bug more precisely
Nice to have such inspired bug tracker

Hello,

I can confirm that kind of behaviour on Ubuntu 10.04 amd64 desktop with Cairo Dock 2.2.0-4 compact view.

Compiz: 0.8.4

I had no problem with that, when using Cairo Dock 2.1.4-10.

It seems to be that Cairo Dock does not recognize the third workspace. When you use the Gnome switcher applet to remove or add workspaces, you can reproduce the following situation:

- Starting with 4 workspaces on Gnome switcher applet will show only three of them all in one column on Cairo switcher.
- Reducing to three workspaces through Gnome switcher will reduce to two workspaces on Cairo switcher.
- Reducing to two workspaces on Gnome switcher will still show two workspaces on Cairo switcher.
- Reducing to one workspace on Gnome switcher will reduce to one on Cairo.

Doing it backwards:

- Adding a second workspace on Gnome will add a second on Cairo.
- Adding a third on Gnome will nothing on Cairo.
- Adding a fourth on Gnome will add a third on Cairo (same column).
- Adding a fifth on Gnome will add nothing on Cairo (still three in one column)
- Adding a sixth on Gnome will add a complete second column with three workspaces, so you will see six workspaces in two columns.

I did try to uninstall cairo completly, doing a restart and reinstalling it. But that did not fix the problem.

Thanks!
