Before and after of System Tray menu
I suspect this is related to Bug 481113. Are you not using Systemd at all, or not using Plasma's systemd launch integration? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #2) > I suspect this is related to Bug 481113. Are you not using Systemd at all, > or not using Plasma's systemd launch integration? I am using systemd. How may I check the latter though? Thanks. Paste the contents of /etc/xdg/startkderc or ~/.config/startkderc (or both, if they both exist) and let's have a look!

I don't have to have either of those files here.

I don't seem* to have either of those files here. Ok, then you are indeed using the systemd integration feature, since it's on by default. In that case my theory goes out the window. :o Does it happen on X11, or Wayland, or both?

Some more questions: 1. It affects all Panel popups that you try, right? 2. Are you seeing that the popups are being reset to their *default* sizes* or just their *previous* sizes which somehow got saved in the past? 3. Does this happen in a new clean user account on the same machine? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #10) > Thanks. Some more questions: > 1. It affects all Panel popups that you try, right? > 2.

Does this happen in a new clean user account on the same machine? 1. Yes 2. Default size; they were never set to those sizes by me before -- 3. I will try it later and report back. (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #10) > 3. Does this happen in a new clean user account on the same machine? Just done testing it. Exact same issues on the new user account, all stock theming etc. I set it and it'd persist after logout and shutdown. But locking it past 15(?) minutes, upon logging back in from lockscreen, I'd get an additional Unlock button and also the panel item sizes are all reset. Strange. Are you using Systemd and the Systemd Plasma launch integration? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #13) > Strange. Are you using Systemd and the Systemd Plasma launch integration? Yes (ref: comment 7) Looks like I'm going senile already > , I'd get an additional Unlock button
What do you mean exactly by additional Unlock button?
(In reply to veggero from comment #16) > > , I'd get an additional Unlock button > > What do you mean exactly by additional Unlock button? On the lockscreen (after being locked >15 mins), after entering my password, it should log me straight in. Instead, there is a Unlock button after that I have to click/'Enter' before it logs me back into my session. (In reply to veggero from comment #16) > > , I'd get an additional Unlock button > > What do you mean exactly by additional Unlock button? Follow up to my prior reply Ref: https://ibb.co/8MmXrgN How strange. I am at a loss to explain what could be causing this. Can you upgrade to Plasma 6.1 and see if it's still happening there? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #19) > How strange. I am at a loss to explain what could be causing this. > > Can you upgrade to Plasma 6.1 and see if it's still happening there? Will do so in a few days for my weekly updates and report back (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #19) > How strange.

Just upgraded to 6.1; still seeing this issue (together with the Unlock button) Is there some kind of log that covers lockscreen and/or panel sizes that perhaps I can pull up? If you disable screen locking (just screen locking), does it stop happening? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #22) > If you disable screen locking (just screen locking), does it stop happening? 'Lock screen automatically' is already set to 'Never' So you are manually locking the screen, then? Like, by clicking "Lock" somewhere or hitting Meta+L? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #24) > So you are manually locking the screen, then? Like, by clicking "Lock" > somewhere or hitting Meta+L? That is correct. Thanks. What kind of GPU are you using? (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #26) > Thanks. What kind of GPU are you using? I'm running a hybrid setup: Main: AMD Radeon 680M Discrete, but not in use: RTX 3070 Ti Laptop I was able to reproduce this same exact behavior by putting the monitor to sleep (automatically or using a shortcut or the power button) and immediately waking it up. It happens regardless of the lock screen showing up at wakeup. Because of this, I've disabled monitor sleep settings until this gets resolved. Unlike the original reporter, I use a desktop with a dedicated GPU and only one monitor plugged in. On a sidenote, I was affected by bug #480026 that prevented my monitor to stay in sleep mode, so I discovered this behavior when I successfully tested the fix for the mentioned bug in 6.0.5. Operating System: EndeavourOS KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 Graphics Platform: Wayland Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 6750 XT (In reply to Timothy B from comment #28) > I was able to reproduce this same exact behavior by putting the monitor to > sleep (automatically or using a shortcut or the power button) and > immediately waking it up.

It happens on my system regardless of whether my monitor is left on throughout the entire period of being on lockscreen, or manually switched off. I've not turned on any sleep settings for my setup. Thought to add on more detail on my display setup: - Laptop's internal display set to 'Disabled' - External monitor connected via DP Alt (USB-C to DP) So essentially, only displaying through the external monitor upon logging in. I have exactly same issue with Application Launcher resetting to default size after monitor wakes up from sleep. Plasma 6.1.2 on Wayland. On further testing, I concur with the other users. All I had to do is to lock session, turn off my monitor, turn it back on after a short moment, log back in and the menu sizes are all reset. The 'unlock button' issue does not seem to have a bearing on this bug at all. Neither does time in between locking and unlocking.

Neither does time in between locking and unlocking. To add on further: Bug occurs even without locking. I can reproduce it by just turning off my monitor while logged into my session, then turning it back on, sizes reset. Addendum #2: I'm not able to reproduce this bug with the internal (laptop) display by turning it off and on (i.e. closing and opening the lid). Menu sizes remain unchanged. What kind of monitor is it, and how is it connected? I can't reproduce this using an HDMI monitor. I have this issue with external USB-C (Thunderbolt) monitor connected to Lenovo Thinkpad laptop, always reproducible. As soon as the external monitor goes to power save mode, the issue is manifested.

Created attachment 170094 [details] Before and after of App Launcher menu Drop-down menu sizes keep resetting after locking for a while (>10 mins ?) or upon restart. Started noticing this behaviour after update to Plasma 6.0.5; did not happen in versions prior. Recently updated to 6.0.5.1, and still having this issue. OS: EndeavourOS (x64) Plasma ver (current): 6.0.5.1
