Description Henning 2023-07-20 12:44:25 UTC

Lots of popup windows dont appear on the bottom right but bottom left when there is a secondary monitor extending the screen to the left.

Example: MullvadVPN window popping up on the left instead of the right.

This even goes for the nm-applet and other systray popups, they sometimes open on the left.

Currently I cant reproduce this but often it happens.

I have the same issue on the most recent version of kde neon. Notifications only appear on my secondary monitor which extends to the right.

This doesn't look very actionable. We'll need more extensive steps to reproduce this I'm afraid.

Comment 4 Henning 2024-07-27 13:49:47 UTC

I cant reproduce this on Plasma 6 afaik.

If I can, I open a new report.

There are tons of old issues of mine that I am currently closing, as many just "resolved themselves on their own"

Thanks for your work guys!
