Move pip window to current virtual desktop #33

Closed opusonline closed 9 months ago

opusonline commented 1 year ago

Thanks for bringing such great features to the web! I'm a web developer and I would love to use the document pip feature, but there's one major disadvantage compared to video-pip windows. As a mac user I'm used to work with virtual desktops and the video pip-window is always shown on the current virtual desktop. Unfortunately, the document-pip window does not follow along, it just stays at the virtual desktop where it was opened. That makes no sense to me. The main purpose of such a window is to be always present to the user. With the current behaviour, it is just an advanced popup window. I would love to see a requirement in the spec saying that it must be always visible to the user and therefor be present on the current active desktop. Thanks in advance!

Hi Stefan,

This was actually a bug in the Chrome implementation, but it should be fixed in 114.0.5696.0 and later.

I'll look into what language we need in the spec to make this a requirement, thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for your feedback! I have tested in Chrome Canary today and it works great!
