SUMMARY

Mouse cannot be moved across multiple displays if there is gap between them

REQUIREMENTS
- At least 2 monitors

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Display configuration
2. Move 1 of the monitors inside "Drag screens to re-arrange them" such that it creates gap between them
3. Try to move mouse from 1 monitor to other

OBSERVED RESULT

Mouse cannot be hovered over non existent space that is created by screen gap that can be created with display configuration


EXPECTED RESULT

Expected result would be that mouse would be able to travel thru not shown spaces inside bounding box of all other monitors

We don't support this configuration, kscreen should now prevent this from happening from 5.27

Please open an issue on kscreen if that is not the case.
