Description dmatteo002 2025-06-17 08:37:51 UTC

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a window
2. Move to another virtual desktop 
3. Change position/size
4. move window back

OBSERVED RESULT
The window moved back use the old position/size.

EXPECTED RESULT

Konsole moved over virtual desktop change tiling status

Sure thing. 

Also I would like to do a small correction. It seem to be only tiling status (all virtual desktop with where the window is untiled have same size and position, but is possible to have different tile and have tile window in some place and untiled in other).

Comment 3 Vlad Zahorodnii 2025-06-17 11:46:41 UTC

This is per virtual desktop tiling.

Comment 4 dmatteo002 2025-06-17 14:21:53 UTC

Mmm, i had understood that feature, to be something different.

For me this behavior of changing tiling stats when moving is annoying, i personally would disable it if possible. 
But maybe it is just me. I would still leave the bug open if more people find this problematic (if that is not a problem).

Could you have a look also at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=505684, which is similar but more properly (i think) is a bug.

Considering the above comments, closings this as intentional.
