Description Tommi Nieminen 2016-04-14 07:39:55 UTC
Contrary to switching virtual desktops, Chromium/Chrome doesn’t respect an activity switch but follows to the one switched to.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Chromium (or Chrome) in one activity
2. Switch from one activity to another


Actual Results:  
Open Chromium follows the switch

Expected Results:  
Chromium should remain in the activity you switched from, as is the case with virtual desktops

Right-click the title-bar and choose 'Use system title bar and borders'. KWin will not support activities for client-side decorated windows.

If you are already using the system title bar and borders, reopen this bug.
