Bug ID: 499465
Summary: Icons-And-Text Task Manager list is empty after
attaching another monitor
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.2.5
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager widgets
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
I'm using KDE Plasma 6.2.5 on a Fedora Linux 41 notebook. The notebook
frequently gets attached to / detached from external monitors (it's my work
notebook). It sometimes happens that after attaching a monitor, everything
updates correctly except for the window list in the task bar, which remains
completely empty. ALT+TAB cycling through open windows still works, it only
affects the task bar.
The issue can be worked around by switching the "Icons-and-Text Task Manager"
to one of the alternatives and back. Not a deal breaker, but quite annoying.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a desktop configured to show the Icons-and-Text task manager window
list. Enable the option to show only the windows of the current screen in the
options.
2. Open a few windows (e.g. a dolphin, text editor, web browser ...)
3. Attach an external monitor (you may have to repeat this a couple of times,
it doesn't always happen)
OBSERVED RESULT
The task list shows no windows and is completely empty, even though there
clearly are open windows.
EXPECTED RESULT
The task list should show the open windows
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
