Description Sven Olaf Oostenbrink 2025-09-26 16:42:33 UTC
SUMMARY
With multiple monitors it is required many times to move sets of windows. I have 30 browser windows open, for example, and sometimes need to move a group of ten from one screen to the other. Right now I need to do that manually, one by one, which is tedious at best.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right click a grouped set of applications on the icons-only task manager panel

OBSERVED RESULT
I should want to see a "Move to screen" option

EXPECTED RESULT
I only see a "Move to desktop" option


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Kubuntu 25.04
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0
Qt Version: 6.8.3
Kernel Version: 6.14.0-29-generic (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

Changing to wishlist, since this is a feature request, rather than a bug

This seems do-able, since we already have the ability to move to an activity or desktop in the context menu in the task manager.

I figured this was a feature yes, but I did not know how to make it a feature request. Will correct that next time.
