Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.1) OS: Linux When dragging a whole virtual desktop in "show desktop" effect from a desktop A to a desktop C through a desktop B (without dropping the desktop). Passing through desktop B reverses desktops A and B (that's normal), but when going to desktop C, desktop B remains on desktop A, but IMHO it should go back to its original position. It's not really a bug, but I find it neither logical nor practical. Added to that is the problem that rows and columns count is messed up after that manipulation (I think it always has one more column than necessary). Reproducible: Always
"Added to that is the problem that rows and columns count is messed up after that manipulation (I think it always has one more column than necessary)." could you please elaborate on this? do you refer to desktop or window arrangement? how many VD do you use?
I used 9 desktops until two days ago, now I'm only using 4 and the problem is exactly the same. When dragging a whole virtual desktop A (with two windows) to a virtual desktop B (with two windows) and back to A (without dropping), both desktops have 2 rows and 2 cols. But they should have only 1 row. I'm using the strict positioning with the expose effect. I hope it's clearer like that, it's not really simple to explain...
On KDE 4.5.2, dragging the desktop (by clicking between windows and dragging) doesn't move all the windows in the desktop at once anymore...
other bug, desktops were recently reconsidered "movable" (cause of the netbook mode?!) was reported before, is fixed ;-)
Alright, but it won't help confirming this bug which is not reproducible anymore...
Unfortunately I do not understand this request. Could you please elaborate further what you actually wish?
Since virtual desktops are mutually swapped, it's not possible to swap VD1 and VD3 by crossing VD2. VD1 -> VD2 -> VD3 => VD2 -> VD3 -> VD1, but is requested to be VD3 -> VD2 -> VD1 Ie. when desktops are swapped, the last swap shall be reverted and last swap needs to be invalidated when a desktop is dropped (the mouse released) Sounds reasonable to me, so marking as new and let Martin re-decide approval ;-)

I don't think this is still relevant with Plasma 5. If it is, please reopen
