Description Max 2022-08-13 02:34:24 UTC

SUMMARY
In my KWin script, I use client.frameGeometry API to change window's width like this:		
client.frameGeometry.width = desiredWidth;

While in X11 session this code works just fine, in Wayland window's width doesn't change. 
At the same time, modifying .x, .y and .height works as expected. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

KDE Plasma: 5.25.4
KDE Frameworks: 5.96.0
QT Version: 5.15.5
Kernel: 5.13.0-52-generic (64-bit)

Can you provide an example script please? Note that geometry updates are async on wayland. If you do

  window.frameGeometry = myNewGeometry;

the frame geometry may not be updated until the client repaints the window. I'm surprised that .height updates are applied immediately though.
