Tabs in saved windows cause the window in the task switcher to be "Window 1"

gaima8

Coming from Arc I'm trying to use "saved windows" in vertical tab mode to look and act like Arc.
Serious annoyance is that the title of any windows in the task switcher with webpages open from saved windows to show as "Window 1" (that literal string).

This is an Orion install importing from Arc, and did include a bunch of Arc spaces with many tabs in imported as tabs in saved windows.

The title of Orion windows showing webpages from "saved windows" to show the webpage title as their title, just like webpages do when viewed from not "saved windows".

Hi @gaima8! First of all, thanks a lot for using Orion and for taking the time to post on our feedback forum!

To help us understand the issue with window titles showing as “Window 1,” could you please share a bit more?

A quick list of the steps you take from importing your Arc spaces to seeing the “Window 1” title.
What you expect to see vs. what actually appears.
A screenshot or a short screen recording of the behavior.

That extra detail will help us understand the problem in more detail. Thanks!

Hey @akshatpatel

I'm afraid I don't know what steps I took to get here. I installed Orion and started using it, an option at some point was to import.
All my open tabs and spaces were imported.
Every single one of them now shows "Window 1", or a new thing I some how managed to do was make one window show up as "Window 2".
In the following screen capture are three Orion windows. The first is a private window, the second is a regular window with a new tab created in the X tabs ..... "thing", I don't know the term for this, and the third is a tab in a saved window imported from Arc.

I think the "imported from Arc" concept isn't especially relevant. If I create a new "saved window" and open tabs in it the window manager window shows the title of the tab, if I switch to a different "saved window" and back to the new one I created a moment ago the window manager window has the name "Window X" again regardless of what tab I select in it.
This is all super inconsistent and confusing.

This is the view I have in Orion

When viewing tabs in the "5 Tabs" window the window manager window titles match the websites titles. If I switch to the "Personal" saved window all tabs are "Window X". If I switch back to "5 Tabs" window manager window titles again match the websites titles.

Hi @gaima8 Thanks again for your detailed explanation. I think I understood now what you mean.

When you have selected the first window (i.e. the unsaved window that shows x tabs), right clicking on the Orion app icon shows the name of the selected tab within that window. <- This is correct behavior.

When you have selected any other window (i.e. any other named saved window), right clicking on the Orion app icon shows the name of the window, but sometimes, it just shows Window 1 even if you select some other window.

This is a bug, and I'm going to create an internal ticket to fix it. Thanks a lot once again for reporting!
