In Display and Monitor: Display Configuration, the display layout preview renders even if it is scrolled off-window. This only happens when logged into a Wayland Plasma session. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log into a Wayland Plasma session 2. Navigate to System Settings: Display and Monitor: Display Configuration 3. Scroll down in "Manage and configure monitors and displays" Actual Results: The display layout preview continues to be rendered over the window chrome and even outside of the System Settings window. Expected Results: The display layout preview is hidden by the window chrome, and does not render outside of the System Settings window. I am using Gentoo with Plasma 5.7.1, KDE Frameworks 5.24.0, and KDE Apps 16.04.3. Here are the results of emerge --info kde-plasma/systemsettings: https://gist.github.com/ehermes/b34efdfadbefa23d5b087c9fdd8d0835 The system is running in VMWare Workstation 12 Pro version 12.1.1. I have open-vm-tools (from the vmware github repository) version 10.0.0 installed. I am using the vmwgfx DRM driver built into the Linux kernel (version 4.6.4).
Updated to Plasma 5.7.2, problem persists.
This was the case until we implemented subsurface support in Wayland, which should be fixed in 5.7. Martin, any idea?
please provide screenshot of the problem

Yes, here is a log of me reproducing the bug https://gist.github.com/ehermes/f2acaf5118fb12ae5646f3cf3eaa431c Let me know if you wanted something else, I'm not certain this is what you were asking for.
all right, I'm able to reproduce. The key here is that one needs to scroll down, so that the subsurface moves up. I'm not sure whether that's now actually a problem in KWin or Qt.
Just tested on weston: there it behaves the opposite way around: the QtQuick view stays in the position and the options scroll below -> QtWayland bug.
Should I submit this to the Qt bug tracker? I'm not sure I understand what makes you believe this is a QtWayland bug, so I don't know how I would phrase the bug report.
Created attachment 100234 [details] Screenshot from Weston How it looks like on Weston

Closing this one as upstream, then.
