kwin rules config

SUMMARY
Window shortcut rules now working when more then one window open that matches rules.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add two window rules with Shortcuts
2. Open first window (Konsole), confirm that window shortcut works OK
3. Open second widow (Chromium)

OBSERVED RESULT
Neither Chromium nor Konsole shortcuts work. Both windows have correct shortcuts (ALT+1 and ALT+2) displayed in titlebars. Closing one of the applications does not fix the issue. But closing both and starting one of them again will enable shortcuts for that started app, until second is started and then both are not working.

EXPECTED RESULT


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 37 with Plasma 5.26.4
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.100.0
Qt Version: 5.15.7
Running Wayland session

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Reproducible in freshly installed Fedora 37, and Opensuse Tumbleweed.

Same bug can be replicated in Fedora 37 Live ISO with Plasma 5.26.2 installed.
On top of already reported issues, I can reliably replicated Plasmashell crashing when assigning custom application shortcut to Firefox and then closing Firefox window. This will crash whole plasmashell, both on Fedora with Plasma 5.26.2 and 5.26.4.

Is this still an issue?
Comment 3 Piotr Dobrogost 2025-06-03 13:38:26 UTC 
I have many windows opened with different shortcuts set by window rules and all shortcuts work so I think this is not valid anymore and can be closed.
