Description KDE Neon user 2016-07-06 01:37:27 UTC 
I've set the option to keep launchers separated and to organize programs manually, but when I click a  launcher next to Kickoff, the application opens at the right extreme of the task manager. That behavior is confusing, and I'd rather have pinned applications replace their launchers at the position I've set them.

Reproducible: Always

Then... uncheck "keep launchers separate"?
Comment 2 KDE Neon user 2016-07-06 17:00:12 UTC 
@Kai Thank you. I took that checkbox was supposed to have the opposite effect.
Comment 3 KDE Neon user 2016-07-06 17:00:24 UTC 
I thought. *

Can you think of a checkbox label you think would be clearer? (Open to suggestions!)

Now I get the idea, but I can't think of a way to express it in a fashion as concise as the current label. Maybe "Add applications opened from launchers to the end of the list", but then you could be nitpicky and say that's not technically correct since they will be at the end even if opened from Kickoff or some other way.
