Description David 2018-07-12 14:01:19 UTC

When using the icons-only task manager, if I force-kill plasmashell and then launch it again, the applications for which there is more than one open window will not show the marker that appears when an application has more than one window (in the default settings, this is a green plus sign below the icon).

Steps to reproduce:
* Launch two or more instances of a graphical application with a window, so as to make it show with the mark of multiple windows opened on the task manager.
* Kill plasmashell.
* Relaunch plasmashell.

Expected behavior:
* Once the task manager appears again, applications that had more than one window open should have a mark that would indicate it, just like it was before killing plasmashell.

Actual behavior:
* Once the task manager appears again, no applications have the sign that indicates more than one window.

Reproducible: always.

Setup: Plasma 5.13.2, frameworks 5.47, QT 5.10.1, running on Debian buster/sid.

I can't reproduce this on my system. Does this happen with particular apps?

No, happens with all of them, e.g. Dolphin, Vivaldi, Sublime.

Looks like an old issue. Setting it to needs more info.
Please try with a newer version(plasma 5.23.5) and if this is not an issue any more let us know.

If a bug remains in NEEDSINFO with a comment provided within less than 15 days, no action will be taken (as it does not meet the above criteria).

Solved in the latest plasma.
