Now I disabled the slide back effect - and the issue disappeared! Thanks for
the very helpful tip! Much better the activities work normally again than to
insist on the slide back effect... Of course there must be a reason that this
confusing behaviour occurred with the change from 5.24 to 5.25, and the slide
back effect had the advantage that it could be used as an additional clearly
visible sign for changing overlapping windows - but I'm already satisfied that
my activities workflow is restored! Your assumption was completely right!
