1. The Pager shows 2 desktops 2. we remove a desktop and the pager disappears from the panel 3. we add a desktop from the systems setings (we now have two desktops) but the pager does not reappear in the panel 4. we unlock the widgets and show the panel's settings window 5. the pager is shown correctly 6. we lock the widgets and pager is shown correctly it is like the pager's status is not updated from hidden, that is something I can guess from panel's code line: ----- visible: Qt.binding(function() { return applet.status !== PlasmaCore.Types.HiddenStatus || (!plasmoid.immutable && plasmoid.userConfiguring) }) ----- big possibility, same problem appears in the activity pager also Reproducible: Always

Git commit a109124d0ac684a52c0167e28c21025b850cc6db by Eike Hein. Committed on 09/10/2016 at 09:45. Pushed by hein into branch 'Plasma/5.8'. Fix circular logic causing Pager to remain hidden Summary: The Pager applet would transition to HiddenStatus if PagerModel.count was smaller than 2, however hiding the root item would set PagerModel.enabled to false, dropping the count to 0 and stopping the window system monitoring, thus never transitioning the applet back to ActiveStatus if the desktop or activity count increased again. This patch introduces a new PagerModel.shouldShowPager property which is updated even when the model is disabled, then used to drive both the applet status and the enabled state of the model.
