Screenshot showing the missing tasks in the Icons-Only Task Manager
SUMMARY
***
The "new" window-overview effect (you know what I mean, the macOS-like Mission
Control thingie) allows me to add and remove virtual desktops on the fly. When
removing a virtual desktop, the Icons-Only Task Manager on another desktop
"forgets" its open windows and simply displays nothing. As a workaround, you
can still switch tasks using the Alt-Tab task switcher.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open window overview with Super+W
2. Make sure that there is only one virtual desktop
3. Now, add another two virtual desktops using the large plus icon at the top
of the window overview effect
4. You should now have three virtual desktops called Desktop 1 to Desktop 3; go
ahead and open some windows/tasks on each of them!
5. Go to Desktop 1 and open the window overview again
6. Delete the virtual desktop in the middle, called Desktop 2
7. Go to Desktop 3 and observe that the Icons-Only Task Manager displays
nothing although there are windows/tasks open on that desktop!
OBSERVED RESULT
None or not all tasks are shown in the Icons-Only Task Manager on Desktop 3
(see attachment for visual explanation)
EXPECTED RESULT
All of the previous and the newly added tasks from Desktop 2 are shown on the
Icons-Only Task Manager on Desktop 3
