STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Installed CentOS 8.5 on a clean VM from scratch, enabled epel-repos added
full plasma desktop, switch to KDE Plasma login
2. Start menu button is at the default left bottom, but the menu opens at the
center position, like Windows 11
3. logged out, switched to an X11 session
4. Start menu opens left above start button--the menu position changes between
Wayland and X11!
OBSERVED RESULT
Start menu opens centered, far away from the the start button
EXPECTED RESULT
Start menu should open right above the start button on the left (or whereever
it is)
Since this came so close after Windows 11 making the center menu a default, I
was assuming this was actually intended as a "feature" and tried to find
options to change it. After comparing with the X11 behavior, I am more inclined
to believe it's an actuall bug.
