Bug ID: 443697

launching applications and using a "extend up" screen
configuration
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.22.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED

Example of bug (top bar represents edge of laptop screen, konsole and Dolphin
were just launched and window was not yet resized)
SUMMARY
When I connect my laptop to a new monitor and change the screen configuration
to have one screen on top of another, some applications open in the middle of
both screens and seem to completely ignore screen boundaries.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Change screen configuration to one on top of another
2. Launch a few applications
3. Some applications will spawn in the middle of both screens
OBSERVED RESULT
Applications spawn in the middle of both screens, which is especially bad if
one screen is not working.
EXPECTED RESULT
Applications spawn on the screen marked "primary" just as it would when a
second screen was not connected.
