Description Felipe Kinoshita 2021-03-27 14:06:59 UTC
On System Settings > Window Management > Window Rules i created a rule to initially apply a specific size and position to firefox (adding a position rule because it doesn't respect window placement) but firefox ignores the position rule as well.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. on System Settings > Window Management > Window Rules create a rule for firefox
2. add position property to apply initially

OBSERVED RESULT
firefox ignores the rules and launches somewhere is the middle.

EXPECTED RESULT
firefox should launch on the position specified by the rule.
