            Bug ID: 481624
           Summary: Icons-only Task Manager fails to display custom
                    Actions properly
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.27.10
          Platform: Debian testing
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY
***
I use the Icons-only Task Manager applet as one of the main components of my
desktop and panel layout, displaying not only some frequently used apps but
other apps, scripts, etc. in the same category. For instance, adding Elisa with
custom Actions to make Kdenlive, Kid3, Subtitle Composer, etc. available in the
context menu as well by either pinning or drag-n-drop...
However, this no longer works with some apps: it started first with "System
Settings" and then "Elisa".
Another problem that has arisen recently is that when I change custom Actions
or even just their order, the context menu of the app icon pinned to the
Icons-only Task Manager fails to update for a long time (hours or even days),
and I can't figure out how and when it finally decides to update.
***

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Copy the .desktop files "org.kde.discover.desktop",
"org.kde.dolphin.desktop", "org.kde.elisa.desktop" and "systemsettings.desktop"
to "~/.local/applications/".
2. Add some customs Actions, including other apps in more or less the same
category to the newly created local files.
3. Add these apps to the Icons-only Task Manager on a panel either by running
and pinning or by drag-n-drop.
4. Next, make some changes like adding, removing some custom Actions, and
changing their order.

OBSERVED RESULT
1. Custom Actions added to "org.kde.elisa.desktop" and "systemsettings.desktop"
don't take effect after step 3, although they can be seen in the context menu
displayed when the .desktop file is right-clicked.
2. Custom Actions in "org.kde.discover.desktop" and "org.kde.dolphin.desktop"
are displayed, but changes made later don't take effect promptly after step 4,
although they can be seen in the context menu displayed when the .desktop file
is right-clicked.

EXPECTED RESULT
1. It should be possible to add custom Actions to all .desktop files even if
they include their own default  Actions displayed in the context menu.
2. All changes in the Actions in .desktop files should be reflected in its
context menu.
