SUMMARY

The Activity feature does not work in Wayland.

Firstly, we lack a way to attach activity information to wayland windows or I am not aware of it.

This causes warning in the task manager applet :
file:///home/meven/kde/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ui/ContextMenu.qml:444: TypeError: Cannot call method 'concat' of undefined
file:///home/meven/kde/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ui/ContextMenu.qml:437: TypeError: Cannot call method 'indexOf' of undefined
file:///home/meven/kde/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ui/ContextMenu.qml:437: TypeError: Cannot call method 'indexOf' of undefined
file:///home/meven/kde/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ui/ContextMenu.qml:416: TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined
file:///home/meven/kde/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ui/ContextMenu.qml:405: TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined

In libTaskManager waylandtaskmodel.cpp :
QVariant WaylandTasksModel::data(...
[....]
    } else if (role == Activities) {
        // FIXME Implement.

Activity related shortcuts does not work at all.

I don't have access to a wayland system. I'm assigning this to the plasma team. The support is missing in kwin/plasma.

You do.



But yes, activities are konwn to be missing in our wayland session. Partly blocked on the meta-discussion about deciding how we want things to work moving forwarads.
