Bug ID: 442321
Summary: Task manager sometimes opens new instance of an
already-running app on left click when using wayland
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.22.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager
Assignee: h...@kde.org
Reporter: zel...@fastmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
When using wayland and the task manager (not the icon-only one), sometimes
plasma will get into a state such that left clicking on an already-opened app
in the task manager will launch a new instance of that app instead of opening
that already-opened app
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use wayland and the task manager
2. Use the following settings in task manager (do not group, sort manually,
enable "minimizes the task", midle-clicking "opens a new instance", enable
"cycles through tasks")
3. Wait for the issue to occur
4. Left click on any opened application
OBSERVED RESULT
A new instance of that application starts
EXPECTED RESULT
The already-running app window should show
SOFTWARE/OS VERSION
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux, Plasma 5.22 (latest)
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0
Qt Version: 5.12.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If the bug occurs, restarting will temporarily fix the problem. Opening task
manager settings and toggling clicking active task "minimises the task" and
saving will also temporarily fix the problem (although probably any save to the
settings will fix it).
This is not related to my keyboard as it still occurs if the keyboard is
unplugged.
