Description Bardur Arantsson 2015-03-28 21:09:04 UTC

Hi there,

It seems that somehow krunner gets confused about screen geometry (or something like that) and thus becomes invisible on one of my (physical) screens.

When I activate krunner (via shortcut) while the focus is one a window on my "left" screen, it shows up as expected. When I shift focus to my "right" screen, focus shifts away from the currently focused application, I can type commands and have them executed by krunner.  However I cannot actually *see* the krunner UI anywhere. (I've attached a screenshot of the "kscreen" config.)

After experiencing this the first time, I did try to mess about with some krunner files in .config, but that was *after* things went wrong. (To no avail, hence this bug report.)

FWIW, I'm running what Arch Linux claims is 5.8.0-1. (I'm assuming that the version list on this bugzilla just hasn't been updated yet. If that's not the case, please let me know what you need to pin down a real version number.)

Please let me know if there's any additional information that I can supply that would help!

Reproducible: Always

Sorry, inadvertently made a duplicate because of the ridiculous amount of Bugzilla slowness. The other bug actually has a screnshot.
