SUMMARY The really great new feature of Plasma 5.19.0 (I'm really fan…) that let you drag and drop windows to activities in the default switcher has a little issue when icons are grouped. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. check that icon are grouped by name of program in task manager, and you have at least 2 running activities, 2. launch at least an application twice (let's say Konsole for example), 3. try to move one of them with Konsole icon to the another activity. OBSERVED RESULT None of the Konsole is moved. EXPECTED RESULT Maybe the active Konsole window should have been moved to the other activity, and the inactive one can be left on the current activity. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: Gentoo with Kernel 5.7.1 KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70.0 Qt Version: 5.15.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The workaround I use is : - move one of the Konsole to another desktop, - then drag and drop the Konsole I want in the other activity.
Looks like an old issue. Setting it to needs more info. Please try with a newer version(plasma 5.23.5) and if this is not an issue any more let us know.

Same issue with Plasma 5.23.5.

I don’t think it’s duplicate; the issue here is about Activities feature, the other ticket is about virtual desktop and pager.
In both cases the root cause is the same: you can't drag a task that's been grouped. Both issues will be fixed once that gets improved.
