Bug ID: 463389 Summary: Full screen windows open a new desktop : can't disable, buggy behavior when closing. Classification: Plasma Product: kwin Version: 5.26.4 Platform: Kubuntu OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: effects-window-management Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: lp....@lavache.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY 1) When I open a window in fullscreen, it goes on a newly created virtual desktop (with desktop change slide animation). I believe it's the "fullscreen" desktop effect. This effect is disabled. Enabling it and disabling it again changes nothing. 2) When I close the fullscreen windows, virtual desktop is removed (with no visible animation). But if I exit fullscreen first, no matter what I do next (even opening another window in fullscreen), if I close that window it removes one virtual desktop. And then I have to recreate it, reorganize the windows again and so on. This can be chained : 3 fullscreen windows close will destroy 3 virtual desktops. This works with any window (tested with Firefox, VLC, Dolphin, Gwenview, games…) This issue has been here for at least 3 major (5.xx) versions, and Kubuntu 21.10. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a window in fullscreen (this create a new virtual desktop) 2. Exit full screen and close it // close it. OBSERVED RESULT Fullscreen windows opens in a new virtual desktop. Current virtual desktop is removed. EXPECTED RESULT - No virtual desktop is created - closing a non fullscreen window don't close the virtual desktop.
