Bug ID: 489746
Summary: Preserve window maximization when dragging to a new
screen
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.1.1
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: multi-screen
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: psychon...@nothingisreal.com
Target Milestone: ---
I'm running KDE Plasma with X11 and recently upgraded from KWin 6.0.5 to 6.1.1.
With 6.0.5, if I drag a maximized window from one screen to another screen (in
a dual-monitor setup), then it stays maximized on the destination screen,
adapting its size if necessary to fit the new screen dimensions. With 6.1.1,
if I drag a maximized window from one screen to another screen, it restores its
geometry (that is, un-maximizes), which is not what I want. I need to manually
maximize the window again.
I don't understand why this behaviour has changed and I don't see any way of
restoring the original behaviour. Could you please either restore the original
behaviour, or add a configuration option to System Settings that allows the
user to determine whether windows should preserve their maximization status
when dragged to a new screen?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Maximize a window.
2. Drag the window to a different screen of a multi-monitor setup.
OBSERVED RESULT
3. The window is no longer maximized.
EXPECTED RESULT
3. The window should stay maximized (adapting its size to the new screen
dimensions if necessary).
