Bug ID: 464280
Summary: Virtual window behaviour does not work as expected
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.26.5
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_kwinvirtualdesktops
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: pe...@prh.myzen.co.uk
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Virtual window behaviour has changed in this release and now it does not work
as expected.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Settings and go to Window Management | Window Behaviour |
Advanced.
2. Select the desired Virtual Desktop behaviour, then save and exit.
3. Click a link somewhere.
OBSERVED RESULT
Wherever the browser happens to be at present, it is brought to the current
desktop and sits on top of whatever is there already, regardless of the choice
at 2 above. This is what I'd expect if the browser were not already running on
another desktop.
EXPECTED RESULT
The window behaviour should be as advertised.
There should also be a third option: to keep the previous behaviour and leave
all windows where they are. (If I'm opening a series of websites while reading,
say, Gentoo news release notes, I do not want to have to keep moving windows
around when I haven't told them to move.)
