Bug ID: 483377
Summary: When screen is turned off for energy saving, can't
turn it back on with touch or stylus. Must use a mouse
or keyboard.
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.0.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: input

SUMMARY
On an ASUS Flow X16, when in "tent mode" I am using touch and stylus in a
drawing app. If on battery, the screen turns off after 5 minutes of inactivity.
However, touching the screen or using the stylus anywhere on the screen does
not turn the screen back on. I must either flip the keyboard back into laptop
mode, or use a USB keyboard/mouse to unblank the screen. When in "laptop mode",
the same thing is true - cannot enable the screen with touch or stylus, but can
with the laptop's keyboard or trackpad (which are enabled in this mode). The
main workflow issue is when not in laptop mode, when there is no physical
keyboard or mouse readily available.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a touchscreen device
2. Energy saving settings to Turn off screen after N minutes
3. After N minutes, tap the screen with finger or stylus to try to turn the
screen back on
4. If that doesn't work, try using a physical keyboard/mouse (from the laptop
or USB if necessary)
Note: with "Touch mode" enabled or disabled is the same result. My preference
is with it disabled to not enlarge the UI elements.
OBSERVED RESULT
The screen comes back on with touch/stylus, but it does with a keyboard/mouse
EXPECTED RESULT
The screen should come back on with touch/stylus.
