The bug doesn’t happen in other desktop environments. 1721722 1 nate 2018-01-12 15:10:19 +0000 Are you able to reproduce using a more recent version of KDE Plasma than 5.8.6? You're using a Long-Term Support version of Plasma, but it's possible or even likely that this is already fixed in a newer version. 1724869 2 david.cortes.rivera 2018-01-25 22:04:40 +0000 Seems it's fixed in later versions in the sense that the screen resolution is restored. However, desktop widgets still get rearranged (i.e. after closing a fullscreen game that had a lower resolution, they get placed somewhere else in the desktop rather than returning to where they were before). 1725280 3 nate 2018-01-27 18:26:53 +0000 Thanks for the info! 1726094 4 cfeck 2018-01-31 03:58:33 +0000 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 360478 *** 1727534 5 david.cortes.rivera 2018-02-04 10:45:07 +0000 Small update: in plasma 5.12.0 the screen resolution is again not restored the first time a fullscreen game changes it. From the second time onwards it is restored tough.
