Absolutely yes, I tried with Thunderbird, Firefox, KeepassXC and Okular so I assume that I could reproduce that with every single app on my system. Has this bug been fixed by itself? ;-) (In reply to Vlad Zahorodnii from comment #7) > Has this bug been fixed by itself? ;-) I am running Plasma 5.17 now and it didn't happen again on this version. :-) Actually the bug is still there I don't know what happened :-/ Hmm, I can't reproduce this bug. Could you please provide a screen recording to demonstrate the issue? (In reply to Vlad Zahorodnii from comment #10) > Hmm, I can't reproduce this bug.

I'm having difficulties to find a pattern now, but it still happens sometimes. I'll come back here if I can get more information to work with. |
