Bug 507060

Same here

plasmashell	cannot grab mouse: no event is currently being delivered
plasmashell	plasma.containments.desktop.folder.foldermodel: clearing drop target positions after timeout: QHash(("folder", QPoint(1974,545)))

That's what I see in the log when trying to move a folder or file to another desktop.

3 monitor setup, primary monitor in the center.
All desktop files/folders are stuck on primary desktop (center) and unable to move them to left or right desktop.

Arch
Plasma 6.4.3
Framework: 6.16.0
QT: 6.9.1

Looks like someone else is reporting something similar on Discuss, something's definitely going on. I installed today's update (on Fedora KDE) and the issue is persisting.

I just made a Desktop2 and the function works as normal.

And now the logs show

when moving a file or folder to another desktop, but at least it works

Update: as of today (22 July 2025) workaround isn't working anymore. All items on second monitor are stuck there, can move into other folders, but if moved back to desktop they'll only move onto first monitor. No new items can be moved onto display of second monitor. I don't want to reinstall my whole DE over this issue, but I'm at a loss as to why it's happening or how to fix it.

I tried the patch: https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/commit/2132b6ceb22f9e5890dd76e114215987db7deb5f
It doesn't seem to help.

Same issue here!

Is anyone available to test this?

Hi,

I'll be able to test it late this afternoon or around 6PM.
I am in Canada EST and it is now 13H37--so roughly 2-4hours.

I'd need instructions to implement the patch though as I have never done such a thing on Linux.

I am on:

Operating System: Endeavour Mercury Neo
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.16.0
Qt Version: 6.9.1
Kernel Version: 6.15.8-arch1-1 (64-bit)

Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (31.1 GiB usable)
Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080
---4.6.0 NVIDIA 575.64.05

Has anyone tested the proposed fix?
Could you report back here please?

Once again I can do it but never have done it so...I'd need instructions.

Just simple do this then that instructions would be good enough for me.
I can copy/paste with the best of them.

It's how i am learning also so most likely it'll be the last time anyone needs to give me instructions.

Plasma 6.4.4 was recently released.  This problem is still happening.  It is extremely irritating that plasma creates icons on the wrong display (I create using a context menu from display 1 and the icon is created on display 2) and even more irritating that I cannot move the icon to the correct display (it snaps back to its original position).   Please give this issue some love!

This issue should be fixed in Frameworks 6.17 which has not been released yet. It'll be fixed when your distribution gets Frameworks 6.17.

TY very much for all your efforts.
I look forward to my distro's next update.

Cheers and have a very nice weekend!

6.17 just landed on Fedora 42 KDE Desktop, installed it and all is functioning as it should!

Thank you for all your hard work on this one! It was neat to go through and see not only the fixes but also how the rendering of multiple displays works, not how I thought but it makes sense. The bug was annoying, but I got to learn some stuff along the way! 

Once again, THANK YOU!
