Task Manager Screenshot

SUMMARY

* If I set 'Show only tasks: from current screen' in Task Manager Settings, all windows from all screens are still displayed. 

* The only setting that works is 'That are minimized'. 

* The bug appeared with the upgrade to Plasma 6.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. right click on Task Manager > Configure Task Manager
2. try to click on checkboxes in 'Show only tasks:'
3. click [Apply]

OBSERVED RESULT

Nothing's happens. Task Manager still displays windows from all screens.

EXPECTED RESULT

Task Manager should only show windows from the current screen, etc.

I am having a similar issue, only with a few more wrinkles:

* It only happens on my secondary display not the primary one
* It always works fine on launch, but at *some* point the task manager on that display will just start showing all apps.

Right now, I am not really unable to narrow down if there is any specific way to trigger this behaviour. Usually I just randomly notice that my task bar on display 2 is suddenly way more populated than it should be

I'm having the same issue as the previous comment:

Some other details on my side
 - I'm using X11
 - If I add a new task manager on the panel in my secondary screen, and delete the previous one, the 'show only tasks from the current screen' setting works.
 - I noticed that one time the issue appeared after waking up the system from suspend to RAM, but I was not able to reproduce this behavior systematically.

It may be a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482339

Does running `systemctl restart --user plasma-plasmashell.service` in the terminal fix it for you?

It does and it indeed seems to be a duplicate. Thanks for the info, I didnt manage to find that other report
