Bug ID: 480795
Summary: Changing layer for layer-shell views does not take
effect until a stacking order change
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 5.24.7
Platform: Ubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: kondor.d...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
This applies to clients using the `wlr-layer-shell` protocol. The issue is
easily demonstrated e.g. with the [gtk-layer-shell
example](https://github.com/wmww/gtk-layer-shell).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a layer-shell surface on some layer (e.g. top)
2. Change the layer (i.e. `zwlr_layer_surface_v1::set_layer`) to something else
(e.g. bottom)
3. commit
OBSERVED RESULT
No change: the surface stay on the original layer. Clicking on / activating any
open view will make the change actually take effect.
EXPECTED RESULT
The surface is moved to its new layer immediately (when commiting)
