Bug ID: 488426
Summary: Unable to move tablet cursor between screens on
Wayland
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.0.5
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: input
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: krazyk...@hotmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It is currently not possible, solely using a tablet, to move the cursor between
screens when the tablet is set to "Follow the active screen".
The changes to the Active Screen logic in Plasma 6 (where it now follows the
cursor position) means the tablet cursor is stuck on one screen, as the tablet
is mapped to the boundaries of the screen and therefore the cursor cannot leave
the screen to make another one active. Instead a mouse has to be used to move
the cursor to another screen, which will change the target screen for the
tablet.
Prior to Plasma 6, it was possible to Alt+Tab to an application on another
screen to move the tablet cursor to that screen. This is no longer possible.
Meanwhile in X11 there was a dedicated shortcut for "Toggle between all
screens". To my knowledge this does not exist on Wayland.
I'm not sure what the best solution for this is, but there should be a way to
switch screens without having to use another device, or manually setting the
target screen in the kcm every time.
