OK...
So I assume from your explanation that we are talking about Konqueror...
I just ran some tests on my machine.
I can open one instance of Konq in desktop2 and one instance of Konq in
desktop3 and make mutually exclusive adjustments to the window sizes. I can
also independently send each instance to whatever desktop I choose without
affecting the other instance (no affect to either window size nor what
desktop the other instance is living in...).
I think this is what you want to do. So, now I wonder if you are aware there
are multiple choices for "move to desktop" when you are running multiple
instances of an app.
Right clicking the app on the taskbar presents a menu. That menu contains "All
to desktop" which will move all windows for that app to a particular desktop.
Alternatively, the top of that menu contains a choice for each instance of
the app; hovering over one of those menu items presents a submenu that
contains "To Desktop" that will affect only that instance.
Is that what you're looking for???
