Still present on Arch Linux (KDE Plasma 6.1.2) *** Bug 491826 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** This behavior was changed as a result of Bug 480781 I think this is a conceptual issue. Because you said:
> EXPECTED RESULT
> Irrelevant entries are not shown
But if you don't want irrelevant entries, why are you using the "Always show all entries" setting? The entire point of that setting is to show irrelevant entries so that your System Tray is static, unchanging, with nothing appearing and disappearing based on the context.
if you *do* want the set of icons to change based on the context, don't use that setting.
So I feel like I'm missing something. Why exactly are you using the "Always show all entries" setting is you're okay with some icons appearing and disappearing based on the context?

Why exactly are you using the "Always > show all entries" setting is you're okay with some icons appearing and > disappearing based on the context? In Plasma 5, my usecase for that setting was to never have entries hidden behind a dropdown. If I open the dropdown right now, I see that there are less icons than what would appear if I enabled "Always show all entries". For example, I don't see "Camera Indicator" or "Input Method/Virtual Keyboard" entries there. I see Notifications and Bluetooth (it is disabled). I would like to always see Notifications, and Bluetooth, but I wouldn't want Bluetooth entry visible if I didn't have an adapter (In reply to l1ttleofficial from comment #5) > Keyboard" entries there. I see Notifications and Bluetooth (it is disabled). > I would like to always see Notifications, and Bluetooth, but I wouldn't want > Bluetooth entry visible if I didn't have an adapter You can select "Always show all entries" and disable "Camera Indicator" and "Input Method/Virtual Keyboard" from the list of items. Is that ok? ๐๐งน โ ๏ธ This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days. Please provide the requested information, then set the bug status to REPORTED.
