SUMMARY On Wayland, the Systemsettings tooltips that are displayed when you hover the mouse on a module to inform on many elements it contains, are misplaced when the window opens. Once you click an element (eg : "Fonts"), they are displayed correctly where they should be (next to the element). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Systemsettings on a Wayland session 2. Hover the mouse on an element at the left (eg : Fonts, Colors, Icons...) 3. Enter OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: MacOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: Plasma 5.14.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.53 Qt Version: 5.12.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Can confirm. For some reason the tooltip isn't doesn't get a transient parent properly. The problem lies in it being a sub surface and it doesn't have focus initially, so KWin refuses to accept the transient parent it tells it, or something along the lines of that.
Fixed in 5.12.1
