Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2010-12-25 01:39:45 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.90) 
OS:                Linux

I just added three activities in this order “home”, “work”, “studying”. I restarted my computer and then the order was “studying”, “work”, “home”.
Remember the order correctly.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Yeah I got this too and sometimes they go back to normal order. I guess ability to sort them would be nice...
Comment 2 Chani 2011-01-04 16:12:23 UTC
patches welcome. :) we just haven't got around to putting in any sorting code.

I'm also unsure whether sorting ought to be done centrally, or by every bit of UI that shows them... and it would be a bit silly to have a config UI just for choosing how to sort them, it ought to be available through d&d... can anyone think of an elegant solution?
Comment 3 Kai Uwe Broulik 2011-01-04 22:01:18 UTC
What about just being able dragging them around? ;)
Comment 4 Chani 2011-01-04 23:12:44 UTC
yeah maybe that is enough... :)

Something like this??

P.S the activity bar should use the same order

Seemingly this issue mutated to a feature request.
