Bug ID: 376059
Summary: Regression: icon only task manager custom sort order
not respected/random re-ordering
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.9.0
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Icons-only Task Manager
Assignee: h...@kde.org
Reporter: chrno-sphe...@hotmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
Possibly started with 5.9.0 or a bit earlier. Certainly worked in early 5.8.x
series. This is a relatively fresh installation, first installed a month ago. I
am using the vertical panel layout.
The behavior is completely erratic, at least I can't really find any pattern.
Pinning a new application adds it to the bottom of the list. Dragging it to a
desired position seems to work, but it then randomly re-sorts to some internal
order. Attempting to re-sort shows bizarre side-effects, for example having
dolphin, krdc and konversation pinned, dragging the krdc icon results in moving
the dolphin icon instead. The whole list then randomly resorts again.
Just now I clicked on krdc which brought konversation to foreground, also
moving the konversation icon to the position of the click. Clicking on the
konversation icon brought dolphin to foreground, moving it's icon to the
position of the click.
Sometimes pinned items also just disappear. Starting the program from the
application launcher restores the icon and also shows that it is pinned.
What seems to help is unpinning all the applications while they are running,
then pinning them in the order one wants them to appear in. So my best guess is
that despite visual representation, it is actually using the order the apps
were pinned in instead of the user defined one.
