Description itouchdennis 2023-12-04 14:11:34 UTC 
SUMMARY

If you open the application launcher and have some shortcuts to quick tile windows, you will encounter that the application menu is also triggered by the quick tile action, it shouldn`t.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up a simple dock, style: floating, center, fit content
2. Add application launcher as a widget to dock
3. Make sure you added the shortcuts for Quick Tile Window to Bottom / left / right / top -  E.g. to "Meta+Left" for Left tile
3. Open the launcher via CMD/Super-key/meta-key
4. While the launcher is open press  the quick tile shortcut (e.g meta + left)
5. The window of the launcher will resize and flip around


OBSERVED RESULT 

The application menu resizes (if its e.g. manually set up smaller as default, the default size comes back ) and also snaps into the direction you pressed

EXPECTED RESULT

The application menu should not be affected by quick tile shortcuts

Are you using X11? This works as expected for me on Wayland.

yes - I am using x11.
Comment 4 Nicolas Fella 2024-02-20 12:18:38 UTC 
Looks like the window lost the _KDE_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_APPLET_POPUP window type (during the PlasmaWindow refactor?). Windows with that type are excluded from quick tiling
