Bug ID: 401105
Summary: Open new window in other virtual desktop won't switch
to that desktop
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: i...@guoyunhe.me
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When window A is focused in current desktop and new window B is created in
other desktop, desktop doesn't automatically switch to where the new window
has been opened.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
You have at least two virtual desktop. One is Desktop A, the other is Desktop
B.
You have any two different applications, for example: Dolphin, Juk.
1. Open Dolphin and Juk in Desktop A.
2. Set KWin rules so that Juk is forced to show in Desktop B. Juk will be
switched to Desktop B immediately.
3. Switch to Desktop B.
4. Minimize Juk in system tray (click close button) or simply quit it.
5. Switch to Desktop A.
6. Click on the title bar of Dolphin so it is focused. (Skip this step will
cause totally different result)
7. Click Juk system tray icon or from application launcher (Kick-off).
Can be reproduced with any applications.
OBSERVED RESULT
You are still in Desktop A but Juk is opened in Desktop B. You have to manually
switch to Desktop B.
EXPECTED RESULT
Juk is opened in Desktop B and you will automatically switch to B, too. So you
can see the new opened Juk window immediately.
