Description Pieter-Jan Briers 2021-11-07 10:51:49 UTC 
SUMMARY
You currently cannot select a primary monitor on Wayland. This means everything like new windows and my dock/menu bar are placed on my (normally secondary) monitor which is very awkward on my setup.

EXPECTED RESULT
Some "primary monitor" checkbox like on X11.

Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.23.2

> like new windows

Window placement is not decided by the primary monitor setting.
