Are you using it? If not, that would be seem to be a bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=425798 --- Comment #19 from Claudius Ellsel --- Currently that MR caused problems with tests that I don't really know how to fix and will thus probably reverted for now. Also I am not sure whether this MR fixes the underlying problem of this bug. Possibly that is the case, since there is probably no better way to set the active screen where windows are opened for now and there are already other bugs for remembering window positions on Wayland. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=425798 --- Comment #12 from Vlad Zahorodnii --- You would need to flip the default value of SeparateScreenFocus and ActiveMouseScreen in kwin.kcfg and kcmkwin/kwinoptions/kwinoptions_settings.kcfg. Hope that helps. As for regressions, I've been using kwin with those options turned on for about a year or two and haven't found any serious issues. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=425798 --- Comment #11 from Claudius Ellsel --- Changing "active screen follows mouse" to true by default seems to be a good first step to mitigate the problems. Corresponding line seems to be https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/blob/master/kwin.kcfg#L105. Since other problems that got fixed by https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/130 it seems to be a bit harder to change the default, though. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

So is this > X11-specific? Happening on both X11 and Wayland, due to the reason David mentioned, I guess. In the comment above, I forgot that there is no "primary screen" in Wayland. Sorry introducing confusion and unnecessary noise by that. Most options I gave are thus probably no longer applicable. My knowledge about what options are possible or sensible is limited. However, to me the only option to mitigate the problem seems to make "active window follows mouse" the default? Is this ok to do (and will this introduce unwanted side effects)? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

It was not my expectation at least. I set up my monitors and saw the "primary" option. I thought that would have some effect. Some options that came to my mind: - Change the code to maybe consider the primary monitor setting for that - If a change is not wanted (this might not be the intended behavior) introduce an additional option and make it default - Make the option "active window follows mouse" the default To me the second option seems to make the most sense, even if a change would be ok. This offers an additional option, so the user has more room to choose from if he prefers the current default behavior. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
