Description Frederik Schwarzer 2010-03-21 00:25:09 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.4.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources

When I switch on my laptop from the extenal monitor (4:3; 1280x1024) to the internal monitor (16:10; 1200x800) something is confused.

I can move the mouse cursor below the lower screen limit and Yakuake also goes beyond the lower screen border, if set to 100% height.
Also all systray context menus are opened downwards, so I cannot reach the items.
Maximising windows works correct though and the panel is at its place as well.

This does not happen if I have a resolution of 1024x768 on the external moitor beforehand or when switching from internal to external.

> Is this still a problem in recent versions of Plasma 5, like 5.19 or later?
