STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Be in a Plasma 6 Wayland session 2. Trigger the Show Desktop effect either by its Plasma widget, or via the Meta+D global shortcut OBSERVED RESULT The active window's titlebar fades as though it's become inactive, but the desktop does not show EXPECTED RESULT It works ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I'm building Plasma 6 from source every day and it seems like a recent regression; I could swear this worked during the sprint last week. Invoking Show Desktop via a screen edge works.

Git commit a7f41f26bbed92c153d2b47fb4ad295713f2f8e6 by Vlad Zahorodnii. Committed on 01/06/2023 at 08:59. Pushed by vladz into branch 'master'. Make show desktop mode hide windows After porting the desktop background window to the layer-shell protocol, the desktop window is not raised up in the stack anymore when the showing desktop window is activated. The main reason to avoid this is to avoid fighting and overriding layer shell logic. As another way to implement the show desktop mode, this change makes the workspace hide windows that don't belong to desktop. It's a better solution for a couple of reasons: "keep above" and other overlay windows will be properly hidden and it lets us avoid touching the stacking order.
