            Bug ID: 449989
           Summary: Overview effect shows several instances of application
                    if it is placed between displays
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.23.90
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Multi-screen support
          Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
          Reporter: indecisiveautoma...@gmail.com
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY
Placing a window between displays (horizontally or vertically) will cause the
window to appear on each display it appears between. For example, if it is
placed between two displays horizontally, it will appear in the overview effect
on both. If it is placed between four displays, it will appear four times. This
occurs no matter the display orientation.

This is purely a visual glitch, clicking on any of the instances of the
application will focus it correctly.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Place a window between two or more displays 
2. Activate the Overview effect

OBSERVED RESULT
The window appears on the Overview effect for all displays that it overlaps.


EXPECTED RESULT
Overview effect only appears on one display, perhaps the display it was most
recently focused on, or the display that contains most of the window? But I'm
not sure how that would work in the case of a setup with vertical and
horizontal displays. I'm not sure what the most intuitive solution would be
here, apologies.
