In standard task manager settings it is possible to disable grouping. However, in icon-only one there is no corresponding setting and the windows are always grouped. Please add similar setting. Rationale: * Icon task manager doesn't take much space, so it is desirable (for some people) to see all windows at once. * It is annoying when some icons need one click to focus corresponding window, while others (grouped) need two. Cons: * With icons only it is difficult to distinguish windows one from another. However: - it is not an issue if you have a pretty consistent set of windows open, so you just remember which is which; - you can tell from tooltip; - task manager could optionally display abbreviated window title (e.g. EAB for this page -- first letters of "Enter A Bug") over icons; - just let the user decide. Reproducible: Always
Any comments from developers?
I also vote for the grouping of similar apps be optional in "Icons-only Task Manager". This option was available in the "Smooth Tasks" on Plasma 4, perhaps some of the code can be reused to make it available in "Icons-only Task Manager". Having always to click in the grouped apps and select the resired tooltip is very annoying! Thanks for your help and attention!

Yup, sure is. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 368430 ***
