Description jz23 2021-04-24 19:34:13 UTC
I have a custom monitor setup with two different sized monitors. The default order is small-left, large-right, but I manually swapped this setup in Plasma (small-rightbottom, large-left). Everytime I log in, the splash screen is first displayed correctly on both monitors, but after a second, the large monitor shows the small splashscreen (with a gap) plus some pixels of a larger and the small monitor parts of the large splashscreen (cropped). Apparently, ksplash renders with the monitor arrangement from SDDM even after the new monitor arrangement has been loaded.

Small monitor: 1920x1080
Large monitor: 2560x1440

Login from SDDM into Plasma X11 Session, happens every time. The bug does not apply to Wayland session.

Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet, and the way multi-monitor support is handled has changed a lot over the years. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with Plasma 5.27? Thanks!
