Comment 1 Alexander 2020-10-17 09:24:19 UTC 
Same on 5.20 krunner is always on the secondary screen no matter what. I enabled active screen follows mouse but I can have an active window and cursor on my main laptop screen and krunner will still open on the inactive second screen.

Comment 3 Alexander Lohnau 2020-11-24 15:15:58 UTC 
Confirmed, this is one of the wayland difficulties.
Comment 4 smit 2021-08-27 16:18:03 UTC 
It was working fine for me in x11 session. Then I tried Wayland session and now this also happens in X11 session.
It always open in top left corner of left monitor
Comment 5 smit 2021-08-31 15:20:50 UTC 
Is this kwin bug ?
Because krunner open correctly on correct monitor (which has mouse pointer) under swaywm

Yes, it seems this is kwin, I have the same problem with the Telegram
Comment 8 Damian Kaczmarek 2021-12-27 06:58:38 UTC 
Couldn't kwin track the current active screen and expose it via dbus? No need for any super complicated solution
Comment 9 Dmitry Misharov 2022-02-08 18:24:20 UTC 
Plasma 5.24 introduced "primary screen" conception for Wayland session. Would krunner just follow the same logic as in X11 session?

Add activeOutputName to DBus interface

Provide the name of the active output via the DBus interface, so it can
be used by other components, like KRunner (see bug 427069).

Show krunner on active output on Wayland

QCursor::pos does not work under Wayland. So use active output from KWin to
determine startup screen. This will also honor the 'Active screen follows
mouse' option from Window Behavior (also under X11).
