can't reproduce, please specify the desktop grid, ie. - how many desktops are there initially? - how is the grid laid out? (grid config dialog, automatic, pager, custom. what's the result) - is this a multiscreen setup? > can't reproduce, please specify the desktop grid, ie. I still see this issue with 4.8.1 > - how many desktops are there initially? No matter how many desktops are there initially, this issue exists when you add a new desktop. Suppose you have 2 desktops, with some applications on desktop 2. Press Ctrl+F8 and then '+', then if you grab desktop 3 in a point corresponding to a point covered by a window in desktop 2 and move then mouse, then that application is moved. Please note that if you Esc and then press Ctrl+F8 again, everything works correctly > - how is the grid laid out? (grid config dialog, automatic, pager, custom. > what's the result) The result is independent of the grid layout. The issue only exists when the box "Use Present Windows effect to layout windows" is checked in the desktop grid config dialog. > - is this a multiscreen setup? No, I haven't a multiscreen setup. I recorded a video to show this issue: http://wpage.unina.it/stavallo/test.mpg Hope it helps. Thanks for looking into this issue Coming back to this a) i guess it's still an issue? b) it seems to happen every other invocation (ie. odd or even ones), right? c) do you use the plasma-netbook shell thing (looks like from the video) Thanks for coming back to this. a)-b) I am on holidays till the end of august, so I can't check, but as far as I remember, the issue is still present in 4.9 . I will check as soon as I'm back home c) no, I do not use the plasma netbook shell also see bug #299657 (In reply to comment #3) > Coming back to this > > a) i guess it's still an issue? Yes, still present with 4.9.1 > b) it seems to happen every other invocation (ie. odd or even ones), right? No, it's not a matter of odd or even invocations. The problem only appears when you add a new desktop (e.g., Ctrl+F8 and press '+'). Then, (say the new desktop is number x) when you grab a point in desktop x with the mouse and in desktop x-1 there is a window in that point, the result is that you move the window in desktop x-1 even if your mouse is on desktop x. If you press Ctrl+F8 and you _don't_ add a new desktop, the problem is not present. Please also note that the problem only appears when "Use Present Windows effect to layout windows" is enabled. > c) do you use the plasma-netbook shell thing (looks like from the video) I am now using the desktop shell and the issue is there as well. It's important that the window has been there when the effect started (what isn't apparent if there's only one VD in the beginning ;-) We can fix what we can see. http://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/106391/ Git commit 3e5fdde239056760b2c0b46bf176a8ea6317697a by Thomas Lübking.
