Description cauchy-schwartz 2021-04-16 20:27:07 UTC
SUMMARY
Changes to external screen resolution are not maintained when using Meta+P switcher presets

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect external screen (an AG-Neovo H-W22) in my case
2. Change resolution (in my case, to my screen's correct 1680x1050)
3. Use the switcher (Meta + P) to change back to a layout with the external screen on

OBSERVED RESULT
Screen changes back to 1024x768 (which is useless)


EXPECTED RESULT
Screen should retain resolution (or at least be configurable to be that)

Thank you for the bug report!

However Plasma 5.21.5 is no longer supported by KDE; supported versions are 5.24, and 5.26 or newer.
Your distribution is responsible for providing support for older versions of KDE software.

Please do one of the following:
- Upgrade to a supported version and see if the issue is still relevant
- Report the issue to your distribution
