[OS X TeX] TeXShop and Spaces

[Adam M. Goldstein]

One oddity that I have come across is that if I am using an application in a space that's not the one that application is assigned to, and I want to open a document in that application, the open dialogue appears in the space the app is assigned to. It took me a long time to figure that out and drove me crazy for a while.

The problem is that when you do this, the console/preview of a file in one space shows up in another space. It seems to me that this is potentially a TeXShop problem, in that it's not completely Spaces aware.
