Plank

[Suggestion] Make Plank act as if it's a new dock for each workspace

Asked by Maxiride

Plank already support "keep on dock" and "limit to workspace" and they work fine as they are implemented now.

However a little improvement could be that if clicking a "keep on dock" item when in a workspace without that app opened it automatically launch a new instance instead of bringing the user to the workspace where that app is active.

Is this a valid improvement? Can it be implemented easily?

Hi !

I was thinking about the same thing and here is an approach that might be easier to implement (i've seen that this problem has raised several tickets since 2016)

Either try as @Maxiride said or else (i don't know if it's simplier) allow us to have several plank (as much as workspaces we have, so that way we can simply copy/paste the settings of each plank for each workspaces, and even keep apps on dock and there would be no mor problem I guess

Can you help with this problem?
