Hi Chengzhi,

currently, the watermarks of the two streams of a connected stream are forcibly 
synchronized, i.e., the watermark is decided by the stream with a larger delay. 
Thus the window trigger is also affected by this mechanism. 

As a workaround, you could try to add (or subtract) a static time offset to one 
of your streams, which can make them more “close” to each other.

Best,
Xingcan
