By clicking on notif or on the tray icon I expect that app to appear on screen. But it won't happen in case the app is already open but in the back or minimized. Gives a bad UX. This behaviour is not consistent across all the apps: Telegram: Oranges taskbar icon Quassel: Nothing happens Discord: Brings app to the front no matter what STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Wait for an app to give a notice 2. Click on the app (or notif) OBSERVED RESULT Task icon is blinking in orange. EXPECTED RESULT Related window is brought to the top and get focus. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: EndeavourOS KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 Kernel Version: 6.9.7-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-7400 CPU @ 3.00GHz Memory: 15.1 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 630 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Please note that I mixed clicking on the notif with clicking on the icon/badge. In the first case I suggest a single click closes the notif and a double click bringing the app to the top. In the second case I suggest a single click make the taskbar icon orange and a double click bring the window to the front. 2334193 1 nate 2024-07-02 18:04:48 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 489286 *** 2334444 2 siavosh.kasravi 2024-07-03 04:04:08 +0000 I should also note that this behavior predates v6.1.1. And it is not that the icons do not respond to double-click. So I suggest revisit the issue to make sure it is a duplicate. 2336381 3 nate 2024-07-10 20:31:52 +0000 On closer reading, you're right. But why isn't this a series of app bugs? System tray icons are 100% custom, made by the app. It's up to each app to implement sane behaviors. 2336637 4 siavosh.kasravi 2024-07-11 15:12:03 +0000 (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > On closer reading, you're right.

If checked by an expert on the matter, I will notify the regarding app. 2339314 5 nate 2024-07-22 21:01:50 +0000 It was an annoying leading question. :) The answer is that yes, tray icon behaviors are up to their apps' developers. Which makes consistency impossible, practically speaking. Which is one of the many reasons why app-provided tray icons suck! >:D 2339437 6 siavosh.kasravi 2024-07-23 06:46:40 +0000 So you WERE the expert ).
