Description naraesk 2015-05-10 16:52:09 UTC 
I'm not sure if this is a kscreen or plasma issue …

I use multiple activities with one virtual desktop per activity. On every activity I'm using different plasma widgets.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect a projector (or external monitor or whatever)
2. Choos "Unified output" in kscreen

Actual Results:  
The outupt is unified as expected. But, my virtual desktop is changed as well. I'm not seeing "my" desktop (with the plasma widgets I added and so on) anymore, but the default one. No widgets, default background.

Expected Results:  
Obviously I still want to use my plasma widgets.

When unplugging the projector my normal desktop reappears.

Thank you for the bug report!

However Plasma 5.3.0 is no longer supported by KDE; supported versions are 5.24, and 5.26 or newer.
Your distribution is responsible for providing support for older versions of KDE software.

Please do one of the following:
- Upgrade to a supported version and see if the issue is still relevant
- Report the issue to your distribution
