Description Jack 2021-01-16 16:28:20 UTC

SUMMARY
Going to edges or corners of a window and pressing alt+right_mouse_button does nothing (only shows right click menu, alt doesn't work anymore). I cannot resize a window using alt+mouse_right_button. Alt function has has been removed.  One pixel to resize window in the corner is impossible to hover mouse over. I need alt+mouse_right_button functionality back.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to edge of any window/corner of any window
2. Press Alt+mouse_right_button
3. Can't resize window, "alt" functionality removed.

OBSERVED RESULT
Alt doesn't change the funcion of right click anymore. One pixel in the corner is not enough to resize a window. Its a regression.

EXPECTED RESULT


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma Rolling Distro: 
KDE Plasma Version: (Latest 2021)
KDE Frameworks Version: (Latest 2021)
Qt Version: (Latest 2021)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Going back to huge frames around windows will not be a good visual change. Its going to be ugly. Resizing windows by using alt+right_mouse_click and frame-less windows was good. Recent changes broke it.

>Alt doesn't change the funcion of right click anymore

Does here. 

Note that this is configurable. Please check systemsettings -> window behaviour -> window actions 

If that sounds like it matches what you would expect, please include ~/.config/kwinrc and reopen this report
