Same issue. Had to disable plasmashell to have my previous workflow. (In reply to Martin Iliev from comment #1) > Same issue. Had to disable plasmashell to have my previous workflow. A solution was posted on the arch forums, see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=283919. Try adding this to your i3 config: for_window [title="Desktop @ QRect"] kill; floating enable; border none I'm going to close this issue, as I believe this fixes things. Also not sure if it is in the scope of KDE to maintain compatability with i3. |
Created attachment 156893 [details] kstart5 plasmashell output I have happily used i3wm with plasma for many years. i3 replaces KWIN as window manager. I have 10 workspaces (equivalent to plasma 'Desktop'). After updating to 5.27.2 I am having trouble viewing one of the workspaces. It is obscured by the default plasma background (as if I was using kwin, although kwin is not running). I can launch applications and verify that they are running but they do not appear, unless I use i3 shortcut to make them fullscreen. If I run `killall plasmashell` I am able to see them. Every other workspace *except the one that plasmashell is restarted in* works, and I am able to see and use the plasma bar like normal. Hope that is clear enough. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Upgrade to 5.27.2 2. Login (or launch plasmashell) 3. OBSERVED RESULT plasmashell is obscuring the i3 workspace that it is launched in. EXPECTED RESULT Able to use i3 normally.
