SUMMARY

Workspace configChanged signal (https://develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/kwin/api/#signals-1) does not work when script configuration is updated ([Script-<script-name>] section in ~/.config/kwinrc). 


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Without this signal, the user needs to disable the script and enable it again to apply changes to the configuration of KWin script. Providing this signal will improve the user experience, if the developer of the script correctly uses it.

configChanged is the signal of the `options` object, not workspace.

Comment 2 David Edmundson 2023-09-06 10:38:13 UTC

This bug was reported against an outdated version of KWin. We have made many changes since the. 
If the issue persists in newer versions can you reopen the bug report updating the version number.
