Hi - it's a bit unclear what behavior is happening and what you're expecting based on this report is written.

Could you please perhaps provide a screen recording of what you're seeing on your device, and a specific description of what the expected result is - what response are you expecting to see from your device?

Thanks!

You can compare how the window mount works in portrait orientation, in plasma the window mount works the same regardless of the monitor orientation

Thanks for clarifying! Retitling this one, placing in the Quick Tiling component, and adding a See Also link to previous discussion from the KDE 4 era on this topic.
