Description Christian (Fuchs) 2017-01-16 12:29:53 UTC

Regression in 5.8.95: 

When I have the following combination: 

- Desktop grid effect active
- Show windows in desktop grid effect
- show a close button in show windows

whenever I activate the desktop grid effect, the close button overlay on windows is treated as a window and shown on the desktop grid.

In 5.8 this seems to not happen with the same configuration  (different distribution though, I don't have 5.8.95 and 5.8 on the same) 

Qt 5.7,  Plasma / Kwin 5.8.95, nvidia driver, Gentoo linux

Isn't this the same as bug #364710?

Comment 2 Christian (Fuchs) 2017-01-16 17:11:12 UTC

Looks rather similar, even though I don't have to hover over a window or activate present window beforehand, it just happens by default when I trigger the desktop grid  (via keyboard binding). 

Assuming the cause is the same, this here can be closed as a duplicate.

Also oddly enough I am not able to reproduce it on my work machine (Kubuntu, Plasma 5.8)  whilst it is 100% reproducible on my home machine (Gentoo, 5.8.95), thus I thought it was a regression in 5.9. Odd.

Comment 4 Martin Flöser 2017-01-16 20:12:17 UTC

I consider duplicate. Also it's rather unlikely to be a regression as there were 0 changes in Present Windows between 5.8 and 5.9 and one config loading change in Desktop Grid.
