Stage Manager - some apps appearing on all stages?

[Stokkes]

Hi All,

Not sure if this is a bug or I've accidentally clicked/enabled something, but I have a few apps that appear on every single stage.. Microsoft Edge and Readdle's PDF Expert windows always appear.

I can't even drag these windows to the left, they never trigger the Stage Manager activation animation like other apps/windows do.

Anyone seen this and if so, know how to resolve it (if it's even possible). I'm thinking it's a bug but not sure.

Thanks!

Right-click on the App icon in the Dock, then "Options" -> uncheck "All Desktops".

That option isn't there.. It was there when I used Spaces - it's something I thought that was maybe a vestige of an old setting, etc. But I removed all my Spaces.

Ok you got me onto something.. I fixed it with this (in case anyone comes across this thread):

1. Deactivate Stage Manager
2. Create a new space from mission control
3. On the apps that are problematic (appear on all stages in Stage Manager), do what you suggested - right click -> Options -> Uncheck all desktops (or set to "None")
4. Delete the space from mission control
5. Reactivate stage manager

Definitely something that a person should NOT have to do, but alas.... it is what it is.
