Description Jonas Thorell 2009-07-01 18:21:43 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I configured plamsa to link activities to virtual desktops (using 4.2.95). It works, except one problem:

Plasmoids that were running prior to that do not show up on any of my 6 desktops. According to the widget browser, they are however still running. I couldn't find to rectify this except hitting the minus-sigh in the browser to remove the plasmoids and re-add them.

Note: this only applies to plasmoids on the desktop. Those running in a panel were unaffected.

if you zoom out the desktop (with the toolbox, -not- with ctrl+f8) does the old desktop with old plasmoids id still visible somewhere?

I checked that, but no. No sign of the old desktop or the widgets.

I cannot reproduce this bug using KDE 4.3.4 and Qt 4.5.3.
