A personal example that hopefully helps make this report more clear: I have two PDFs opened with Okular, on the fifth spot on my icons only task manager. To the left of it I have the DeaDBeeF music player pinned, but it is not running. When I press Meta+5, Plasma only presents an empty preview window above DeaDBeeF, with the text being DeaDBeeF's last state (Song title etc.) before I closed it long ago. Doesn't matter if Okular is pinned or not, it has the same behaviour. I just performed another test on this, and found out that the task manager simply attempts to create a preview window where there last was one. This means that, if you hover your mouse over a different application on the task manager and let the tooltip window thumbnail appear, pressing Meta+(Number) on a grouped task will re-spawn the window thumbnail you just created with your mouse. Weird, cannot reproduce. Hi Nate, thank you very much for attempting to reproduce the issue. I have created a short video and uploaded it to YouTube. You can see it here: https://youtu.be/ljuXR-2lLpA Here's a rundown of what I do in it: 0:02 - First I open another Dolphin window to create a grouped icon. 0:08 - Then I hover over Firefox, to view that window's preview. 0:12 - When I then press Meta + 1 (Dolphin's position), it shows the last previewed window. In this case, Firefox. 0:25 - By previewing Dolphin and removing the cursor from the preview, it can show Dolphin's windows correctly, but only because that was the last preview. This is on my desktop by the way, not sure if it matters, but as mentioned the same issue occurs on my laptops in the Wayland session. In the video the bug is reproduced in the X11 session. Thanks for the video. It's very clear. Unfortunately when I do the exact same thing I still cannot reproduce it! Are you using any non-default Task Manager settings, by any chance?

My Plasma panel settings
These are the settings for my Plasma panel, just in case they're needed. I couldn't see any settings in it that I personally think might be related to the bug, but you never know.
Good catch! Can't believe I didn't think to include my task manager settings.. I had to double check now that you mentioned it, but with all default settings (except for tooltip window thumbnails, as per step 1), it still exhibits this same behaviour. But thank you, I'll make sure to include my settings in future reports. On the other hand I have a lot changes in my Plasma System Settings, but I'm unsure if any of them could affect the bug and which ones I should share here, without dumping thousands of lines of unrelated settings here. I uploaded my "plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc" file, just in case. Lemme know if I can share are any other files or settings that might affect this. Can't reproduce either, but the Meta+N keyboard shortcut doesn't switch among the grouped tasks, which should be fixed. I was hurried. I can reproduce now. Need to drag the task to change its order before reproducing the bug. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open multiple Konsole windows (at pos 1) 2. Open Firefox (at pos 2) 3. Drag Firefox to pos 1 4.
