In systemsettings you can configure actions to be triggered by moving the mouse pointer to some screen edge or corner (like showing the window mosaic) This is not working anymore in current 4.11 branch Reproducible: Always

now I am confused - I expected a different output. All I can say: works for me with quite similar settings
Hi Martin, anything else I can provide? Anything else you can imaging might cause this? Is there anything to do for 4.10 -> 4.11 migration to make it work again which I might not have done? One big change I can actually *see* since 4.10 is that the corners are now "glowing" when the pointer hits them.... Thanks -Marc
> anything else I can provide? Anything else you can imaging might cause this? you could attach a screenshot of the screen edge systemsettings module. Maybe I notice something there

ok, I just compared to my settings and activation delay is 150 msec. Could you try with that? Maybe 300 and 350 msec is just too close to each other.
Bingo! Thx. I played with the upper value a bit, leaving the lower value at 350ms. Result: * 248ms is the hightest value where it works without problems * at 249ms it hardly works, often I need a number of tries to make it react. Is this system dependend (e.g. CPU/GPU ..) ? From a user-POV: I never realized that these numbers would change the behavior of the corner actions. I always thought that the three settings were a group, so that the ms numbers would only affect "border for desktop change" settings...
