Bug ID: 489904
Summary: New windows by default on wrong monitor
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.1.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: multi-screen
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: fe...@feldspaten.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
After logging in, new windows appear on the first display but not on the main
screen.
When I open e.g. Konsole via Keyboard shortcut after logging in, the new
Konsole window appears on the Laptop screen (which is the first screen from the
left in my configuration) but not on the main screen, where the mouse and the
taskbar are. I need to move the mouse around and click on the first screen to
make new windows appear also on the main screen.
The issue is only present before one moves the mouse. I can open and close the
Konsole windows and they always appear on the first display BEFORE I do any
mouse interaction. After moving the mouse on the main screen just a little, the
Konsole window appears on the main window.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
You need to have a multi-monitor setup. The first display must not be the main
display.
1. Login to a new Plasma session
2. Open a application via keyboard shortcuts, do not move the mouse
3. New application will be opened on the first display
OBSERVED RESULT
New applications are opened on the first display
EXPECTED RESULT
New applications are opened on the main display, where also the mouse is
located.
