SUMMARY When using the Present Windows effect, the search bar retains the previous search/filter query. Prior to 5.25.0 the search query was not retained. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Use the Present Windows effect (Ctrl+F9 or Ctrl+F10) 2. Type in the search field 3. Close out of the Present Windows effect (via the Escape key or by selecting a window) 4. Reopen the Present Windows effect OBSERVED RESULT The previous search query is retained EXPECTED RESULT The previous search query is not retained SYSTEM INFO Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.95.0 Qt Version: 5.15.5 Kernel Version: 5.18.5-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland
I already fixed this as part of my merge request that will very soon be merged: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/2562

Git commit 6838b1132fad8b32c26409fd46b2e49803684dd6 by Nate Graham, on behalf of Niklas Stephanblom. Committed on 23/06/2022 at 17:13. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Windowview: Fix broken keyboard navigation while filtering After the 5.25 update, one could not see which window was highlighted until one manually unfocused the SearchField and then pressed any key to refresh the WindowHeap. Also, the searchbar would (most of the time) "absorb" the arrow keys so one had to also unfocus it to really be able to select windows with they keyboard. With this change, there is always one window highlighted while filtering using the search box. Also, one can select another window with the arrow keys without manually unfocusing the searchbox. This heavily improves the keyboard functionality in this effect that got lost with the 5.25 update of presentwindows to windowview and resolves complaints about the keyboard navigation being buggy.
