Bug ID: 489136 Summary: Edge barrier behaves unpredictably, causing irritation in use Classification: Plasma Product: kwin Version: 6.1.0 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: qlum...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY The way edge barriers between screens work right now, are rather annoying, and mouse movements do not land where one would expect. This happens mostly with either slow mouse movements and or diagonal mouse movement. Those take a lot more movement to cross the barrier than a fast movement. STEPS TO REPRODUCE IN NORMAL USE Try to naturally move the mouse to a button right across a screen edge, notice how you will get stuck behind the barrier. Generally you will move the mouse at a lower speed near where you want to click. Other option: Try to move your mouse from the bottom right of your left screen to somewhere along the top left of your right screen at a slower to moderate pace. Notice how it's relatively hard to hit that area. OBSERVED RESULT The edge barrier behaves very differently based on mouse speed and angle. EXPECTED RESULT The edge barrier is a fixed width to overcome regardless of how the mouse is moved. Closing thoughts I don't know if what I say is universally true, but I have noticed fighting with the edge barrier quite a bit. On both my home and work systems. If this is intended behavior, I will just keep the setting off, but I felt like it may be worth it to consider these irritations. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
