Created attachment 142089 [details] group folder icon SUMMARY The visual indication of the grouping of windows is not very nice and not very informative. The + sign looks like something foreign. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Use window grouping in the system OBSERVED RESULT The + sign looks uninformative. EXPECTED RESULT We need a function to turn off the visual display of the grouping of windows on the panel. Or reworking it into something convenient by default. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION It is these little things that make up the convenience of use. They are worth taking care of to fix them. I apologize for my English, if it seemed to you unsightly (google translate).
Created attachment 142090 [details] what I would like to see
That's a pretty nice mockup. I'd like that too. Implementation would be a bit tricky since the current plus sign indicator is a theme graphic. So if we simply stopped displaying it, we would be ignoring graphics that theme makers have created. What we could maybe do is use your proposed new appearance as a fallback in cases where the theme doesn't supply a graphic for this, and then remove it from the Breeze theme.
A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/745
Are they any changes? I would like this change to be accepted in the next release
It's up to the community.

Git commit a0637a7c19e0a005bb1963491906a94a4f1c8926 by Nate Graham. Committed on 03/11/2023 at 15:01. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. applets/taskmanager: New grouped task style for themes without the normal graphic for it This commit implements an idea in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443235 for a different style of grouped task indicator. It is implemented to only use this new style when the active Plasma theme lacks the grouped task indicator elements in its `tasks.svgz` file. So if we want to use this in the Breeze Plasma theme, we would have to remove those graphics.

Well, I implemented it, and it was immediately reverted because everyone hated it and it looked bad with symbolic icons. :) So I guess not.
