Description Jonathan Marten 2010-02-06 13:06:10 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Under the KDE3 desktop, a window with _NET_WM_STATE_SKIP_PAGER set in _NET_WM_STATE was ignored and not shown in the list of windows displayed by Ctrl-Tab (walk through desktops) or Alt-Tab (walk through windows).  In KDE4, the window is displayed and can be selected just like any other.

This can be tested by starting an application with 'kstart --skippager' and then checking the window properties with xprop.  The _NET_WM_STATE is set correctly.

The window is not displayed, though, in the "Switch Window" popup menu.

Unless this is intentional, this is a regression from KDE3.

Patch to fix

Checked this patch with walk-through-windows and walk-through-desktops actions, windows with SKIP_PAGER are not displayed.
