    [SOLVED] Opening applications in current activity

    Hello, I configured two activities, one for general use and the other one for photo editing. I would like that, when I launch an application, its windows opened in the current activity screen. However, this not necessarily happens. For example, if dolphin is opened in the general use activity, double clicking on a folder in the photo editing desktop opens the folder as a tab in the dolphin window in the general use activity. This is very annoying. Is there a way to tell KDE tio open all applications in the current activity?
    Thanks

    I can't reproduce this unless I go into Dolphin's settings and set it to open new folders in a tab.
    When un-checked (which should be the default), it should work correctly.

    I am on Plasma 5.27, but this should be the same in your Plasma version, as far as I recall. I can't remember the last time I had any similar issue with Activities.

    There will be some non-KDE applications that don't play well with Activities, no matter what settings are used.
    Chrome is one, for me.

      Thanks. I changed that setting and now dolphin works as I wanted. The other applications that I use work fine too.
