SUMMARY I have a laptop with a touch screen, which I have disabled because I use an external monitor and I that even if the internal screen (laptops touchscreen) is disabled it still accepts touch events. EXPECTED RESULT I think if a monitor is disabled, it shouldn't accept touch events. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.96.0 Qt Version: 5.15.5 Kernel Version: 5.18.12-arch1-1 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics Memory: 15.0 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD RENOIR Manufacturer: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. Product Name: Zenbook UN5401QAB_UN5401QA System Version: 1.0
If it's disabled, then it's not showing any output. How can you tell it's accepting touch events?

I don't understand how that would be related. Can you clarify?
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > I don't understand how that would be related. Can you clarify? You can directly see it how it moves the cursor., when you press on the touchscreen it accepts the press event, etc.
I can't reproduce that using these steps: 1. Plug in external screen (HDMI) to touchscreen laptop 2. Hit Meta+P to show the screen OSD 3. Click "Switch to external screen 4. Tap the part of the laptop screen where Kickoff would be, trying to open it on the other screen Result: nothing happens on the other screen; Kickoff does not open. Does this sequence of actions do the wrong thing for you?

I could control windows (dragging the titlebar), it would accept press events on programs, etc. Currently, I cannot reproduce because I don't have an external monitor at hand.

I just tested it. It indeed does the wrong thing (it opens the app launcher menu).
Should be fixed in 5.27. Reopen it if you can still reproduce it.
