Bug ID: 450026
Summary: Smart window placement: quickly opened windows should
not be placed at the same position
Product: kwin
Version: 5.24.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: core
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: g...@netcologne.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I e.g. am opening konsole windows via hotkey (left-windows + t). If you open
two windows and wait a second after opening the first one, the windows are
placed fine side by side by the smart window placement logic. But if you
quickly press the hotkey twice the windows are positioned at the same position.
So the first window is completely covered by the second window. It would be
much smarter if they still would be placed side by side.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. enable smart window placement
2. configure a hotkey for opening an application (like konsole or dolphin)
3. press the hotkey quickly two times
OBSERVED RESULT
The two windows are placed at the same position. The first window completely
disappears behind the second window.
EXPECTED RESULT
The two windows should be placed side by side as they are opened when pressing
the hotkey with a short delay of e.g. 1 second.
