Rename suggestion.

SUMMARY
Change 'Group only when the Task Manager is full' to combine groups to single task only when Task Manager is full.

OBSERVED RESULT
The only way to have tasks always grouped, is to either have task always compined or always separated.
The 'Group only when the Task Manager is full' ungroups tasks.

EXPECTED RESULT
Ability to have groups, without merging to single task, while giving the option to merge if taskbar is full.

KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.4

On that note, also suggest to rename 'Open groups in popups', to 'Combine groups to single tasks'.

Sorry, I don't understand your report at all. Could you try explaining it differently?

Options 1, 2, 3

Currently:
Option 3 affects option 1 instead of 2.

Request:
Add an option 4, to affect option 2.
Comment 3 Eike Hein 2019-12-29 16:00:25 UTC
Thanks.

Yes, it looks like someone broke the UI design recently when they rewrote that settings page - this option indentation makes no sense as the options are not conditional like this.

Sorry, that someone was probably me when I re-did this to make it use FormLayouts.

Happily, George submitted a patch to fix it (and improve other things): https://phabricator.kde.org/D26660

The indentation of option "Group only when the Task Manager is full"
is misleading.
