Description MrShinigami 2024-03-14 08:22:00 UTC
SUMMARY
In plasma 6, there is no option to add a keyboard shortcut to switch to last/previous active desktop, which exists in plasma 5.27.
This provides a seamless switching experience from one desktop to another, without a concern for desktop number, grid position, etc.

Eg: Similar to how Alt+Tab switches to previous active window, a desktop switcher is needed, as optionally existed in plasma 5.27

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
System settings > keyboard > shortcuts > kwin : No option to switch between previous desktops (Walk through desktops?).

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: Opensuse Tumbleweed
KDE Plasma Version:  6.0.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2

Instead of using custom kwin scripts (as given in the duplicate bug report thread), is it possible to include this functionality in plasma addons please?

Please don't re-open closed bug reports. This isn't the right place to ask that question.
