SUMMARY Discover ignores the "Active screen follows mouse" option, and opens on the wrong display in multi monitor setups STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Make sure a second display is connected 2. Go to System settings > Window management > Window behavior 3. Enable "Active screen follows mouse" 4. Run Discover 5. Move its window to the second / secondary display 6. Close Discover 7. Move the mouse cursor to your first / primary display 8. Run Discover OBSERVED RESULT Discover opens on the secondary display, since it remembers the display on which it was last opened EXPECTED RESULT Discover should follow the "Active screen follows mouse", thus it should open on the display which hosts the mouse cursor
And you see this only with discover? Can you include your ~/.config/kwinrulesrc
I've tried KWrite, Kate, Konsole, Dolphin, Sweeper, and they all seem to open on the active screen. So, I'd say it's a Discover specific issue. I should probably mention that my secondary display is on the top of my primary one, instead of to the right / left of it content of ~/.config/kwinrulesrc ---------- [General] count=0 ----------
