Comment 1 Martin Flöser 2019-03-19 04:58:06 UTC

There's no startup notification protocol yet on Wayland.

Comment 2 Bharadwaj Raju 2021-06-10 13:21:00 UTC

I get the bouncy icon again now on Plasma Wayland 5.22 (Neon Unstable). Can someone else confirm?

Comment 3 Patrick Silva 2021-06-10 13:43:00 UTC

I see bouncy cursor when I open files via Dolphin, but I don't when
I launch an app via kickoff or krunner.

Neon unstable here too.

Comment 4 Nate Graham 2021-06-14 15:40:29 UTC

Yeah, this is now partially implemented, but more needs to be done.

Comment 5 Aleix Pol 2021-06-14 22:48:06 UTC

This is getting included in 5.23.

There's changes in the pipeline for a bunch of repositories. I'm hoping you'll get to test it by the end of the month in development releases of Plasma.

FWIW, a lot of the changes are already merged and you should be getting them in some places (kwin, kio, kwindowsystem are in place already).

Comment 6 Nate Graham 2021-06-14 22:53:12 UTC

Yep, I see those. :)

Comment 7 Nate Graham 2021-08-20 01:09:13 UTC

This has been implemented by Aleix Pol Gonzalez and is working for Plasma 5.23!

Comment 8 Benjamin Smith 2021-10-27 03:57:37 UTC

This is not working for me on plasma 5.23.1 on Manjaro.

Now I found out that for sure (at least for me) - the animation depends ONLY on the speed of the application launch (in krusader, I brought a deliberately wrong network address to one of the panels to slow down the rendering of the interface - now there is always animation). How it works programmatically - I do not know. Kpat also does not show animation if it is closed and immediately opened, but if it was unloaded from memory + the processor is loaded at that time, there is animation ...
