I assigned present windows to top right corner which works well on a single screen 1600x900 (LVDS1) and shows a fancy glowing indicator. After connecting a 1680x1050 screen (HDMI1) as left screen, moving the mouse pointer to the top right corner of the now right LVDS-1 screen still shows the indicator but the effect is no longer triggered. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Assign effect to top right corner 2. Connect a second screen with larger resolution as lect screen 3. Move the mouse pointer to the top right corner of the right screen Actual Results: Edge indicator is shown but effect is not triggered Expected Results: Edge indicator is shown AND effect is triggered
please provide output of: qdbus org.kde.kwin /KWin supportInformation once for one screen and once for the multi screen setup. Also please explain how you change the multi screen setup.
Created attachment 80577 [details] single screen KWin support information
Created attachment 80578 [details] dual screen KWin support information
I attached the required support information for both single and dual screen setup. Switching from single to dual screen is done by KScreen/libkscreen2 0.0.92 for which I disabled the "display management change monitor" daemon and enabled the "KScreen 2" daemon. Switching itself works quite reliably,
> Screen 1 Geometry: 1680,150,1600x900 Does it work if you move the screen to 1600x900+1680+0, ie. xrandr --output <SCREEN_NAME_HERE> --pos 1680x0 - Is only present windows affected or would activating the desktop grid fail as well. - Does toggling compositing (Shift+Alt+F12 twice) or restarting "kwin --replace&" have any imoact?

Happens with desktop grid as well which is assigned to the lower right corner but I tried to keep the bug report simple and it is likely the same root cause :) - Does toggling compositing (Shift+Alt+F12 twice) or restarting "kwin --replace&" have any imoact? No besides that the hotspot indicator does not work with compositing off.
Case solved, this bug report is invalid: Behaviour was caused by synergy (http://synergy-foss.org/de/), works fine without synergyc running. Sorry for your time... :(
ah that made my day :-) Hasn't been for a long time that we got a synergy related bug report
