Summary (updated)

"Force row settings" in Task Manager should use "column major" sorting


Description
-------

Dear everyone,

I'd like to draw your attention to the somewhat recent activity that's been happening concerning issue #215231 (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215231 ). Basically it boils down to people strongly voicing their opinions on their preference of a "row first" sorting order for the task bar when the "force rows" setting is enabled.

This issue has come up before 2 years ago (see https://svn.reviewboard.kde.org/r/5776/ ), where the request to implement this was denied. Interestingly enough, the negatively received change was only introduced in the 4.6 release. Effectively, we, the users, feel this is a feature regression, breaking a functionality that's worked in previous releases just fine.

We therefore kindly ask for this issue to be reconsidered for resolution, i.e. bringing back the behaviour from pre 4.6 releases.


This addresses bug 215231.
    None
