Is this on X11 or Wayland? Are you using the PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING environment variable? This is on Wayland. "Are you using the PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING environment variable?" Not sure. If so, then because it has been set by default. How can I find out and where would I set this? I'm seeing this behaviour too, with Wayland and Plasma 5.24.1 on openSUSE Leap 15.3. I'm using a laptop with 2 external screens - both connected via display port connections. The laptop monitor (also the primary display) is always correct, but the other monitors often lose their settings. This morning, both external monitors were rotated 90 degrees (only one is physically rotated). This suggests that the name assignment is inconsistent; there was a similar problem under X11 a couple of years back. The position and scaling settings are similarly affected - which means that sometimes I log in and the mouse pointer is not only on a screen with no panel and default wallpaper, but that screen is positioned away from the others so it won't let the mouse go from one screen to the other. If it happens to match the right name to the monitor, all of these are correct (position, scaling, wallpaper, panel). This issue may be vaguely related to #385135 - the same fix seems to help: remove the whole `[ScreenConnectors]` section from `~/.config/plasmashellrc` and restart plasma. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 427278 *** |
