Hi, Not sure if my terminology is correct, but I'll describe best I can: I wish to hide the NM icon from my System Tray as I use it infrequently on my desktop. But I don't want to remove it completely, because sometimes I need to log in to a VPN. So in the System Tray settings under "Entries" I set the visibility of Network Management to "Hidden". The icon then goes out of the main tray and into the menu that pops up when I left-click the little up-arrow at the right of the System Tray. This would be perfect, except that if I click the up-arrow and then left-click the NM icon, nothing happens. I would expect the NM plasmoid to pop up like it does when the icon is not hidden. Compare to e.g. the Device Notifier, which does pop up when left-clicked. The way it currently works, hiding the NM icon has as much usefulness as removing the icon entirely. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. In System Tray settings, Entries, set Network Management visibility to Hidden. 2. Bring up the hidden icons (press the little up arrow). 3. Left click on the NM icon. Actual Results: Nothing happens. Expected Results: The NM plasmoid window should pop up like it does when the icon is not hidden from the system tray. The Device Notifier does it this way.
