Description John Horne 2024-06-25 13:30:58 UTC

SUMMARY
Logging out from KDE/Plasma/Wayland using the desktop mouse right-click and selecting 'Leave...' or using ctrl-alt-del, always shows the logout confirmation screen (offering logout/cancel/shutdown etc options).
I have unchecked the 'Logout Screen' option in the system settings.
My '~/.config/ksmserverrc' file shows 'confirmLogout=false'.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. When logged in, right-click on the desktop background and select 'Leave...'
2. The logout confirmation window shows.
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
The logout confirmation window appears. Selecting logout from this does log out the user (as expected).

EXPECTED RESULT
No confirmation window should appear; the user should be logged straight out and returned to the SDDM login screen (I don't have auto-login upon logout enabled).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Comment 1 Nate Graham 2024-06-25 13:50:43 UTC

"Leave" now always shows the logout screen; this is intentional. The confirmLogout setting is now only used to actually confirm logout, i.e. offer you the option to cancel when you invoke a *specific* session-ending action. This has been clarified in System Settings already, and we should probably rename the user-facing "Leave..." text to make this clear as well. I'll do that.

containmentactions/contextmenu: rephrase ambiguous "Leave…" action

This action now does a very specific thing: it shows the logout screen
with all options — in contrast to all other actions which show it in
confirmation mode, with only the selected option and a cancel button.

Let's rephrase the menu item to reflect that, since we can now use
precise language.
