Bug ID: 365948
Summary: Windows with focus that are not on top are minimized
when clicked in the task manager
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.7.2
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Task Manager
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

This is a change in behavior from 5.6, not inherently a bug. However, it's
something that I've found to be extraordinarily distracting ever since
upgrading to 5.7 to the point that I consider it incorrect behavior.
If a window has focus, but has other windows on top of it, clicking on the
focused window in the task manager minimizes it. In 5.6, clicking on the
focused but not raised window causes it to be raised.
This is very noticeable with focus follows mouse plus a delayed raise on hover,
because by moving the mouse down to the task manager, I very frequently bring
the window I'm interested in into focus without raising it, and when I use the
task manager to then try to raise it, it gets minimized instead.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable "Focus Follows Mouse - Mouse Precedence", with a 0ms focus delay, no
focus prevention, and raise on hover, delayed by 500ms.
2. Create two windows, one partially overlapping the other.
3. Put the mouse pointer in the window that's on top
4. Move the mouse pointer out of the top window, over the bottom window, and
then onto the desktop (in less than 500ms).
5. At this point there should be an unfocused window on top, and a focused
window below it.
6. In the task manager, click on the entry for the window that has focus but is
below the other window.
Actual Results:
The focused window is minimized.
Expected Results:
The focused window is brought to the top.
