Description Luiz Angelo De Luca 2014-07-18 23:22:24 UTC
Hello,

I configured kscreen to have part of a screen over the other one. No problem with panels of windows. However, when I click on a background, it is brought to front. I can see this in the overlapping region.

>I configured kscreen to have part of a screen over the other one.

Out of curiosity, why? Isn't it annoying have the same bit of screen twice?
Comment 4 Luiz Angelo De Luca 2014-07-21 16:05:07 UTC
Yes, it is. ;-) But it might be a usage for it. Maybe for an exotic screen compositions...

The bug is only about plasma wallpaper. It should still behave as a wallpaper, even on this strange setup. It should not raise over each other. However, there is still the problem of which one should be over each other.

I'll reduce the importance as it is not that much important.

This has been working for a while now.
Comment 6 Luiz Angelo De Luca 2014-12-01 20:12:55 UTC
Sorry Aleix, I just tested and I still swaps the shared screen part to the background of the last clicked screen. Returning to Unconfirmed

Hey Luiz, can you please test on a recent version of Plama and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved, thanks.
