I've come across a couple of other problems with 42. One, the list of open windows, either the horizontal row of thumbnails or vertical list will open and I can't clear it. The other is clicking on the task bar has no effect. These, along with the locking desktop make 42.2 a pain to use. Its not enough to tell us you run running 42. You have to tell us which desktop you have selected.
List of open windows? WTF?
KDE.
I often have several apps open. I normally can click on the app on the task bar to open up a list of windows for that app. This is what fails. I either have one of the 2 methods of listing open windows displayed and cannot move beyond that or I can't even get the list, by clicking on the task bar. When this happens, I can't even open new apps.
Have you right clicked the task bar and played around with the settings for the Task manager? I'm not having this problem. I have "Only group when task manager is full" UNCHECKED and all the windows from say Thunderbird are grouped with a little green Plus sign cricle to let me know there are multiple. If I hover over it, I will see thumbnails pop up, and can select the one I want. If I click the Tbird taskbar item, I will see a list, and again I can click the one I want. The scroll wheel will step through all the windows for the app I clicked or hovered over. Moving the mouse out of that task area causes the list or the thumbnails go go away. Notice also that you can control the locking interval (or turn it off) in the kde settings. Quite frankly, this version of KDE5/Plasma is one of the best versions I've seen in a while, regardless of the underlying OS. -- After all is said and done, more is said than done. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
