Description Tralen 2016-04-07 06:04:11 UTC
The option to not group tasks in the icons-only task manager has disappeared with the last Plasma update. Before the update, I could right click a task and set it to not group for that particular application, now, if I right click, I no longer get the option, and I'm forced to use the application grouped.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any other application.
2. Open the same application again.
3. Both windows of the application will be grouped in the task bar.
4. Right click and look for the "Do not group option".
5. You will not find it.

Actual Results:  
You should be able to disable grouping for that application, but the option disappeared.

Expected Results:  
I was expecting to find the option, but it appears to have been removed.

Since the option disappeared, I can't remember the specific name, but I think it was simply "do not group".

Hi, there

As I've always used Kubuntu with updated Plasma (through official PPAs) and currently use an up-to-date KDE Neon User version I come to ask: this regression never got fixed, did it? Or am I missing something?

Just to be clear and to add a little, regular Task Manager has it but Icons-Only doesn't for this long, even over fresh installs in any of the mentioned setups and computers/laptops they've been done in.
