• Bookwork KDE task switchers

    From local10@21:1/5 to All on Sun Apr 24 07:00:01 2022
    Hi,

    After migrating from Bullseye to Bookworm, it appears that the only task switchers available to me in Bookworm are "Breeze", "Breeze Dark" and "Breeze Twilight", no other task switchers are available.

    Currently I use Breeze, which works but I would prefer to get the "Flip Switch" back that I used to use in Bullseye. Not sure why other task switchers have disappeared, maybe I'm missing a package or maybe the KDE compositor crashed? Had a similar issue
    some years back when the KDE compositor crashed and KDE disabled it afterwards, resulting in the loss of some task switchers, IIRC.

    Any ideas? Thanks

    Do you mean that "Flipt switch" and other task switchers that relied on the dropped effects will not be available in Bookworm? It's not a critical issue for me, just curious.

    Thanks,

    Those other switchers come in the kwin-addons package


    Yes, after installing kwin-addons the "Flip Switch" and other task switchers became available. Tried the "Flip Switch" task switcher and it looks like it works a lot slower than it used to in Bullseye, definitely not fun to use. Is it just me or that's
    how it works now?

    Thanks,

    From the above bug description:

    Clip switch and cover switch had been replaced since they got removed on Plasma 5.23,
    but they're still not good enough, their animations are jerky and lacks effects we used to
    love. It currently doesn't looks how it looked before.

    The above correlates well with my experience with the "new" Flip Switch, it's just not fun to use as it currently is. I'll probably will stick with the "Breeze" for now.

    Thanks to everyone who responded.
