Bug ID: 498788 Summary: [6.3 beta] VirtualDesktopSwitch plugin is extremely unreliable Classification: Plasma Product: kwin Version: git master Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: activities Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: o...@geek.co.il Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY I have, in ~/.config/kactivitymanagerdrc, the following: [Plugins] org.kde.ActivityManager.VirtualDesktopSwitchEnabled=true Which is rely on for the activity manager to "remember" which virtual desktop was active on each activity, so that switching between activities bring me back to ... ehm... the activity I was doing previously on that activity. This has never been 100% reliable on Plasma 5 and 6, but with the new 6.3 beta I actually had to go back and check that it is on, a few times, because it doesn't seem to work at all. After a lot of testing I figured out that the VirtualDesktopSwitch plugin is on - as it works in 1 time out of every dozen or so switches. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. have 2 or more activity, with 2 or more virtual desktops 2. Start an application on activity 1 on VD 1, and another application on activity 2 on VD 2 3. Go to activity 1 and focus the application on VD 1 4. Go to activity 2 and focus the application on VD 2 5. Switch back to activity 1 OBSERVED RESULT Most of the time, VD 2 will remain active after switching to activity 1 EXPECTED RESULT The virtual desktop should switch to VD 1 SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon Testing Edition KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.11.0 Qt Version: 6.8.1 Kernel Version: 6.8.0-51-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 20 × 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-12700H Memory: 31.0 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor 1: Intel® Graphics Graphics Processor 2: NVIDIA RTX A2000 8GB Laptop GPU ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Could this possibly be related to the behavior in bug #443968 - which also came back with the Plasma 6.3 beta? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
