Version: unspecified (using Devel) OS: Linux Using a post-Beta 1 snapshot (4.5.81) it is no longer possible to switch activities. Or to be more precise, activities are switched (differently-associated windows stay on the respective activity) but the Plasma widget layouts, wallpapers, and so on aren't. Also, switching among activities and doing any activity with them such as stopping or renaming permanently erases the previous (but not visible) configuration. In some cases (which I can't reproduce reliably yet), Plasma will also crash after switching. In short: 1. Windows keep their association among activities 2. Plasma layouts and widgets aren't switched - they remain the ones on the activity selected at login 3. If an activity is manipulated with the "wrong" layout, the previous configuration is lost. Also, creating a new activity overwrites the current one being used. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start a Plasma session with one than more activity 2. Switch to a new activity using either the activity bar or the activity controller Actual Results: The widget layouts and wallpaper do not change. Expected Results: A change to the correct layouts and wallpaper as defined in the configuration file. Packages: openSUSE 11.3, KDE:Unstable:SC snapshots (4.5.81, post-Beta1). Observed this effect on two different machines.
