Sentry Crash Report:

Description Nate Graham 2023-11-06 21:47:40 UTC 
Plasma 6 Wayland built from git master 20 minutes ago. 2 screens:  4K@200% laptop + 1080p@100% desktop; laptop is primary with Plasma Panel on it


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have two screens (mine are listed above)
2. Right-click on empty area of Panel > Enter Edit Mode
3. Click "Set Position"
4. Click on one of the giant arrows on another screen


OBSERVED RESULT
The panel moved to that screen edge, but on its current screen, not on the screen you clicked on.


EXPECTED RESULT
The Panel moves to the clicked location on the other screen.


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Sorry for missing this; I only just recently started using a dual-screen setup, and did the bulk of the testing back then, and I forgot to test this feature with my dual-screen setup.

Allow the new Panel Settings to move the panel to a different screen

This simply sets the screenToFollow to the panel when you click on the button on a certain screen.
