When looking closer, I have noticed that the drag area on the left is actually inside of the window w/ the same gap as on the right side. Same goes for the top edge and the bottom edge: So the edges of the rectangular drag area is shifted by a few pixels to the bottom-right compared to the drawn window. Not sure, but it seems like a cursor issue. Can you try running plasma with the KWIN_DRM_NO_AMS=1 environment variable? Note that you may need the latest kwin as there's a known crash in beta.

On KDE Neon Testing, I have switched to another tty, ran `export KWIN_DRM_NO_AMS=1 && dbus-run-session startplasma-wayland` and can confirm, that setting this environment variable fixes the issue. Okay this sounds like a cursor hotspot issue when running in a VM. (In reply to Vlad Zahorodnii from comment #4) > Okay this sounds like a cursor hotspot issue when running in a VM. But just to make it explicit: There's only an offset related to the changing of the size of a window. All other areas of interaction do not show this offset. With legacy functions the hotspot only works because we pass it into drmModeSetCursor2 (which is a workaround for limitations in v1 of drmModeSetCursor) - with AMS the VM has absolutely no information about what we use the cursor plane for, or what the hotspot is. It assuming that we display the cursor in the cursor plane is also a hack and could cause more breakage soon. To solve this problem either VMs need to stop making such assumptions and/or some new drm properties would need to be introduced that signal whether or not a plane is used at all for the cursor and if so, what the cursor hotspot is supposed to be. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 427060 *** |
