Kubuntu 18.04.1 Double clicking taskbar does nothing

[nlsthzn]

Good day,

Recent install of Kubuntu 18.04.1 fully updated, Graphics PPA enabled using Nvidia 396.54 driver all working fine except... when I double click the taskbar I expect it to maximise instead it does nothing I changed the settings to maximise horizontally, maximize vertically etc. and none of the options work (except the option that says do nothing).

Not a biggie but would like it to work.

Well, that action is working here.

If I double click on the Titlebar at the top of the window (also called the Window Decoration in Linux) it maximises the window and reverses it again on double clicking it.

Maybe some other setting you have changed is causing the problem or something in the Nvidia settings perhaps?

Everything was (well still is) stock like when I installed it except that I disabled the transparency when moving windows, but I disabled that as part of my troubleshooting to try and get this issue resolved. Didn't touch anything nvidia related except to install the proprietary driver. I had an install of Kubuntu 18.04 earlier in the year and I didn't have this issue (or I didn't try and maximise a window in this fashion).

Well, not sure if it was the kubuntu-update PPA or the backports PPA I added and updated from but things just improved on several fronts. Double click top of window and maximise works. Chrome stopped pestering me to be default browser (even after I had previously set it several times) and my user picture finally took and displays on the start menu.

And nothing broke so far I know
