SUMMARY when another window want attention, kwin just switches to it's virtual desktop, its only dolphin doing this STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. choose a file that would take some time to compress, right click -> compress here as whatever 2. switch virtual desktop and wait for compression to finish 3. boom! dolphin teleports to current desktop SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: gentoo KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.106.0 Qt Version: 5.15.5
This happens when any external application (e.g. firefox download widget -> "show in folder") asks to open a directory, and that directory is open in dolphin on another desktop. The whole dolphin window (including any other open tabs) is pulled to the current desktop. Please provide a way to disable this (and focus/select after context-menu compression in general, and focus after move/copy operation as well), all these behaviours are related, relatively new, and _extremely_ annoying.
