Bug ID: 412923
Summary: Global Menu on Latte panel on one activity = no menu
at all on another activity
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.16.5
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Global Menu
Assignee: k...@privat.broulik.de
Reporter: dubh...@yandex.com
CC: mvourla...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0

Two screenshots of observed behavior from both activities
SUMMARY
I have set up two activities, using Latte panel/dock instead of Plasma panel.
In one activity, I use Global Menu on a Latte panel. In another activity, I use
no Global Menu. The activity with Global Menu works as expected; the activity
without it shows no menus altogether.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Latte dock/panel.
2. Set up a Latte panel, configure it so it's only on that activity.
3. Place the Global Menu applet on that panel.
4. Switch to another activity.
5. Open any program that normally has a menu.
OBSERVED RESULT
The program opened in the activity that has no Global Menu won't have its menu
on its own window. Instead, it will have no menu at all.
EXPECTED RESULT
The program opened in the activity with no Global Menu would have a menu on its
own window, like normally happens if one doesn't use Global Menu.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE neon 5.16, User Edition
KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0
Qt Version: 5.13.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Also tested with Window AppMenu, which is a Global Menu applet made by Latte
Dock's creator. Same results as explained above.
I attached a screenshot. One side with the activity with Global Menu, showing
an application open, with an expected result. The other, in the other activity
that has no Global Menu, showing another instance of the same application, but
with no menu altogether.
The author of Latte Dock seems to think this issue is related to how Global
Menu works rather than something he can do with his Latte Dock program to fix
the behavior. Therefore, I ask here.
