Description Tim 2024-09-25 03:23:11 UTC
SUMMARY
The window preview on the "icons only task manager" does not go away if the task is selected after it appears.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Minimize an application.
2. Hover over icon in the task manager until the preview appears.
3. Click the icon bringing the application to the foreground.

OBSERVED RESULT
Preview becomes persistent, until the cursor is removed from the icon. 

EXPECTED RESULT
Preview goes away.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Kubuntu 24.10
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.6.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2
Kernel Version: 6.11.0-8-generic (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I've noticed this behavior isn't quite consistent, but instead sometimes the preview goes away as expected. Hence i figured it might be a bug.

I can't reproduce this issue with current git master, but I'm also not 100% sure I tested it as you did; can you attach a screen recording that shows the issue happening? Thanks a lot!

Sure mate, here's a video of it occurring.  It appears to happen less frequently today, though i can still reproduce it given a few tries.

To avoid confusion,  the "persistence" thing I'm referring to happens on the last opening of the terminal. The previous openings are my expected behavior.

Thanks. I can't reproduce this at all with current git master.

I am also not able to reproduce this with Konsole on Plasma 6.1.5
I *am* able to reproduce with plasmashell and konsole from git-master
