Hello, today I upgraded to KDE 4.11 on Kubuntu 12.04 64 bit

As I have said, task manager does not group tasks in rows. My configuration is:
*Force row settings
*Max rows: 2
*No Group
*No Order
(Sorry if in English this is not exactly how I wrote)

Will I need to configure something to make it work like the old task manager? Or it may be a bug of the new task manager?

Have any of you tried KDE 4.11?

I appreciate if someone can test and tell me if the tasks are ordered in rows.
I'm interested to know if this is just a problem in my system or if it could be a bug, to report it.

Thank you very much.

is this about grouping or ordering? title says "does not group" but post asks "if tasks are ordered"

using sorting=alphabetic grouping=no max row=2, my apps are sorted in task manager across row 1 then across row 2

Sorry, order in "rows". I am not referring to be grouped in "columns" or anything like that.
That is, as I show in this screenshot (KDE 4.10):

In KDE 4.11 with any settings I can not get more than one row appears. Taskbar always shows a single row.

can you try:
- as a new user
- or adding a 2nd default panel
- or removing then re-adding the task manager

does increasing the height of the panel help?

I had tried that and renaming the .kde folder.

That is!
But the necessary height for rows appear is too big for what I like.
I do not like a panel so high and big icons. In the old task manager if you had marked "force rows settings", rows were always present with any panel height.

The task manager was re-written in QML so it's behavior may not be quite the same

I can get my rows pretty thin, but if I want multiple rows in the system tray I must make it higher then I'd like

In the next image I show first the size that I currently should use in KDE 4.11, and second the height I was accustomed to using with the old task manager:

Even I would like a lower height that show in the second example, but in this way I start to have problems with QuickLaunch icons.

I hope that in the future be possible to use smaller panel heights with two rows in the new task manager.

@google01103, thanks.
