Description Piotr Mierzwinski 2022-02-14 00:21:59 UTC 
SUMMARY
I don't understand why is present option to stop activity if there is not possibility to start it again, or I cannot find it. I found only button to delete it.

In System Settings also is missing option to start, previously stopped Activity (is present only button to delete). Here, on the list there is not even possible to distinguish which activity is stopped and which not.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add couple activities, let it be 4
2. stop 2 of them
3. Try to start them again

OBSERVED RESULT
is not possible to start again stopped activity

EXPECTED RESULT
would be nice to user be able start, stopped activity

right click on desktop, show activity switcher, and then from the sidebar it opens clicking on a stopped one will resume and switch.
however, yeah, perhaps start/stop buttons should be present in systemsettings as well

It was so simple :/.
Thanks a lot for a tip.

I hope also here (in Activities) will be possible to drag and drop application like in new Desktop Effect for virtual desktops.
