Description phrxmd 2021-11-08 13:17:44 UTC

SUMMARY
On Wayland, KRunner always opens on a particular screen, when in X11 it opens on the screen with the mouse pointer.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In the Wayland session, with multiple monitors, invoke KRunner.
2. Move the mouse pointer to another monitor and invoke KRunner again.

OBSERVED RESULT
KRunner always opens on a particular screen - in my case my notebook's screen, which happens to be the leftmost screen.

EXPECTED RESULT
KRunner should open on the screen where the mouse pointer is, like it does on X11.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Comment 1 Firlaev-Hans 2021-11-13 17:09:12 UTC

Can confirm on Arch Linux (Plasma 5.23.3) as well as KDE Neon unstable, Krunner always opens on the left screen even if the cursor is on the right screen.

Comment 2 phrxmd 2022-02-09 22:54:27 UTC

Still happens with KRunner 5.90.0 on Plasma 5.24.0.

Comment 3 ilker 2022-02-15 08:21:19 UTC

Can confirm that it doesn't working on Kde Neon with 5.24.0
