Bug ID: 486862
Summary: Window should be always on top
Classification: Applications
Product: plasma-systemmonitor
Version: 6.0.4
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In my opinion the initial system monitor window that spawns should be displayed
always on top above any other window so it's always accessible when you need
it. I've had situations where frozen applications stopped rendering and
responding which i wanted to kill but because they had "keep above other
windows" the Plasma system monitor couldn't be displayed. I don't know how
other OSes do this but please consider having this on by default(not as an
optional kwin window rule) and maybe as a settings option to disable it.
Perhaps even as a priority above other "keep above others" windows but i'm not
sure if kwin has such priority lists.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a maximized window with "keep above others" set
2. Open Plasma system monitor with "keep above others" on its window not
initially set
OBSERVED RESULT
Plasma system monitor can't be accessed even with alt-tab without first
removing "keep above others" on the other window
EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma system monitor takes priority and is displayed immediately
