SUMMARY Windows that were closed as maximized does not open on monitor where cursor is located. Window opens on most left monitor. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Maximize window SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.84.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Do you have KWin set up to open windows on the screen where the cursor is located? The setting is in System Settings > Window Management > Window Behavior.
It's checked. It works fine until I close for example dolphin as maximized. Than it will open maximized but on my left monitor even cursor is on right. Unmaximizing dolphin will switch from maximized mode to "normal" window but it's still maximized because it does not remember unmaximized state. I think this is related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437089
OK, thanks.
