When I click on the app icon on v0.8.0

Hi!

In versions 0.7.x when I click on an app icon with several windows has the same behavior like using the shortcut Meta+1: Opens the KWin toggle between windows of the app.

In version 0.8.0 I when I click on the app icon on the panel I enter in the KWin toogle present windows (I have attached an screenshot about this).

But when I use the shortcut Meta+1 I switch between windows of the same app directly without KWin toggle, I have to use the Ctrl+F7 KWin shortcut to enter to the toggle mode like latte-dock v0.7.


I prefer the toggle mode when I use the shortcut Meta+1, could you add a preference to select which is the behaviour the user want?

Thanks!

Unfortunately that was intended based on user feedback in order to not need the mouse to access your required windows.

I will leave it as feature request but I dont think something will change in the future.

Is it to hard add a checkbox to use the same behavior on mouse click and using switch key?

No it isnt but it is a design decision to not do it

So, is useless if I will try to send a PR with that. Maybe I can do it :)

I could reconsider in 2-3 months based on major user feedback concerning v0.8

there is no other user feedback concerning this, lets keep the current implementation...
