Description miku84 2017-02-16 08:57:20 UTC

On X I have 2 virtual desktops, but I cannot see and use the 2nd in wayland. 
In wayland I even have 1 desktop in the systemsettings, on X 2pcs.

Also, the virtual desktop widget is not showing on the panel on wayland, only in edit mode.

So it is not supported? I did not found anything about it, that is why I reported the bug.

I have the same problem.

Thats a widget problem i guess. Your second virtual desktop exists, you can use keyboard shortcuts to get there, thats what i do.

Comment 3 Bhushan Shah 2017-03-20 15:34:01 UTC

Yes that is known issue, for instance see : https://community.kde.org/Plasma/5.9_Errata#Wayland

Comment 4 Edouard Duliège 2017-04-10 10:14:01 UTC

I have the same behavior with plasma-workspace 5.9.4-1 on Fedora 25.

Comment 6 Martin Flöser 2017-12-06 21:05:45 UTC

This is tracked in https://phabricator.kde.org/T4457

As we don't need to track in two different trackers I dare to mark as RESOLVED/LATER. As a current workaround you can use the desktop grid (e.g. Ctrl+F8).
