[SOLVED] Mag8 Plasma Selecting one of multiple open windows

Postby DiBosco » May 23rd, '21, 17:36

On Mageia 8 when using Plasma, if you click on a program in the task bar it no longer pops up giving you the option to select which one of the multiple windows you want to look at. It just cycles through all of the open instances which is most unhelpful when you have, like, a million Okular windows open! :D Is there any way to stop this and go back to the old method?

No clue what you mean with 'old behaviour' but maybe this helps:https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=14087

Yes, that's exactly what I'm on about. :-) You did know what I mean. ;-)

I finally found what I need after a load of trial and error with your pointer.

On the English version you need to right click on a running app, select more options, configure task manager, then behaviour within the dialogue box.

Danke schön! :-)
