Description g111 2013-10-19 19:14:14 UTC

After upgrading to kubuntu 13.10 with KDE 4.11.2 a left mouse click combined with holding the ctrl-key does no longer show the windows of this group in a "present window" effect. This was the case until KDE 4.10.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure the task bar to group windows.
2. Open enough windows of one kind so that they are grouped in the task manager.
3. Hold down the ctrl key and left click on the grouped item inside the task manager.
Actual Results:  
The group's submenu opens listing all the windows of this group.

Expected Results:  
The windows of this group should be displayed with the present windows effect of kwin.

As I've got very used to this feature I call it a bug that it does not work anymore.

This Bug still is present in KDE 4.13.0.

I am really missing this functionality.

Great! This are really good news!

Thank you very much, Eike.

Comment 6 Eike Hein 2014-04-28 09:04:07 UTC

No problem - it's my fault anyway; I frankly forgot about this feature when I rewrote the Task Manager for 4.11.

Comment 7 Christoph Feck 2014-04-28 10:34:57 UTC

The fix will be in KDE Workspaces 4.11.10, which will be released June 10th.
