Created attachment 186608 [details] Video showing the problem and the temporary solution SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have Icons-Only Task Manager with "Clicking grouped task" behavior set to "Shows textual list" and have System Settings -> Window Behavior -> Focus -> "Focus stealing prevention" set to "Medium" 2. Open a window that covers the whole screen (for example, Firefox browser) 3. Clicked on a grouped icon to view the textual list. OBSERVED RESULT List of grouped tasks will not appear, or it will appear, but below the focused window. Having System Settings as a focused window does not have this issue for some reason. Changing to "Shows small window previews" works as expected (shows above the focused window). EXPECTED RESULT List of group tasks to appear above the focused window. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.9.3 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Setting System Settings -> Window Behavior -> Focus -> "Focus stealing prevention" to "Low" resolves the issue, but judging by how the other behaviors work as expected on "Medium" setting, it seems like its an issue of the textual list behavior.
