Bug ID: 392130
Summary: Plasma + Wayland: KDE IM Panel shows its candidate
window at wrong position
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.12.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: generic-wayland

screen shot of a KDE IM panel's candidate window
On plasma wayland session, Plasma KIM panel does show its candidate window at
the cursor position.
It seems that KIM panel try to put the window at the relative position from the
active window, but actually, the candidate window is placed at the absolute
position from the screen top-left.
This problem should be related to the well-known limitation that each
application cannot get its absolute position on a screen on Wayland.
To avoid this problem, GNOME Shell retrieve the correct position by asking
Wayland compositor.
