Description Denis Lisov 2022-03-02 20:41:56 UTC
SUMMARY
Since switching to running Plasma on Wayland, I'm sometimes having a window (or a few) that seem to be "invisible" to plasmashell applets. Most often that happens with Pidgin's windows (buddy list and/or conversations window).

What does not work:
- they're missing from the Task Manager panel applet;
- they're missing from the Window List panel applet;
- they're not affected by the Minimize All Windows panel applet.

What works:
- normal window management (moving, resizing, maximizing, minimizing);
- switching to/from them with Alt+Tab.

If a window gets into this state when opened, it does not become normal later or vice versa (at least I've never seen that). I don't have reliable steps to reproduce (sometimes the windows of the same applications behave normal), but could perform steps for debugging if I knew what to do.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Can confirm that I'm seeing the same symptoms with GIMP 2.10.30.
