Description Martin Droessler 2017-07-13 14:34:47 UTC
Created attachment 106589 [details]
only half of the widget explorer is shown

Given: a Multi-Monitor Setup with either different resolutions or an offset/layout arrangement other than "next to each other".

Action: add a widget on the left most monitor (that is smaller than the one next to it)

Expected: the widget explorer shows up on the left side

Actual: only half of the widget explorer is shown
See attachment add-widget-list-cut-off.png for details.

Assumption: the vertical offset of the output/monitor is ignored

Proposal: determine the offset (xrandr knows about the offset, so I guess it can't be that hard) and respect it.

Thanks for the report Martin.

I've just tested this on Plasma from git master and I cannot reproduce this issue.

Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved, thanks.
