Bug ID: 356516
Summary: moving from one to another virtual desktop can skip a
virtual desktop inbetween
Product: kwin
Version: 5.5.0
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: ua_bugz_...@binary-island.eu
Hello...
I updated to Plasma 5.5.0 and immediately started running into the following
problem that I seem to have narrowed down to KWin (since downgrading it alone
to 5.4.3 makes this particular bug go away) :
I have 8 virtual desktops, arranged in a 2x4 manner. When moving from one
virtual desktop to another by going over the right edge of the screen, there is
a 50:50 chance that it will switch one desktop further and skip the actual
correct desktop. This does not happen when going from right to left, only from
left to right. It seems like the mouse cursor is not always properly reset to
the proper side and thus causes a another jump... but I am not sure on this
one.
Like I said, downgrading KWin to 5.4.3 does fix at least this problem but
causes new ones in other areas, so it is not really even a workaround. ;-)
If there is anything I can do to help further diagnose this, please let me
know.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create several virtual desktops (e.g. 2x4)
2. Switch between them several times by moving the mouse cursor over the right
edge of the screen
Actual Results:
Sometimes the correct desktop is skipped and there screen jumps one desktop too
far.
Expected Results:
Switch to the correct desktop.
