Description S. Burmeister 2012-03-08 10:06:00 UTC

I think this is a regression compared to 4.8.0.

If one has enabled icon tasks to show all tasks across desktops and activities and one clicks on a single task that is on another activity it changes to that activity.

If however the task has multiple windows, e.g. kmail + the composer, this does not work anymore, i.e. clicking on the multiple tasks icon does nothing.

If one clicks on the thumbnail that opens besides the panel it works.

This also affects KDE4.8. The reason, I think, is that when clicked on the group the 'present windows' effect is used, and this is not owrknig across activities. The only solution, AFAIK, would be to use the 'popup menu' setting for gouped tasks on another activity.

Pushed by craig into branch 'KDE/4.8'.

When one, or more, members of a task group are on another activity then dont't use the present windows effect, fallback to the popup menu instead.
