--- Comment #9 from Lonnie <k...@startport.com> --- I respectfully request that the Senior Dev, who is rejecting this request, please reconsider. I feel very strongly about this particular request and I consider it a practical requirement that every desktop environment make "Display Settings" accessible via each and every working monitor. This way, anytime there is an issue with the primary monitor's ability to display, you always have the ability to configure, as Primary, one of the monitors that remains working. This is especially crucial for a Desktop Environment like KDE Plasma, whose default settings provide no panels (and therefore no Application Menu) for any other display than the primary one. For example, if a laptop's monitor stops displaying, its not so easy to just "unplug" it. It remains the primary monitor even though it isn't displaying anything. The laptop itself may not even realize that there's a physical issue with its primary display. What if you have important unsaved work on this built-in primary monitor that's no longer displaying? You don't need to have a bad monitor to reproduce this scenario. It takes only 3 steps STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Log into the KDE Plasma Desktop in a dual Monitor Set up. 2. Turn you primary monitor's display away from you, so that you cannot see anything displayed at all. 3. Attempt to access "Display Setting" on the remaining non-primary monitor (so that you can disable the primary monitor that theoretically isn't working and make the working monitor primary). Source: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443810 I'm typically not one who advocates the imitation MS Windows, but in this case, I see practical reasons as to why they put "Display Settings" into the right-click-context-menu of every display connected to the PC. However, even without these practical considerations, I'm a big advocate of putting settings "at the place where they're used" as a matter of convenience. Since "Display Settings" are used to configure Displays, I can't think of a more pertinent menu-option-candidate for the right-click-menu of each monitor's desktop. Please reconsider. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
