SUMMARY Hot corner (upper left) that displays a preview of all open windows view worked perfectly in Plasma 5.25, doesn't work anymore in Plasma 5.26 in an X11 session, still OK in a Plasma Wayland session. Putting the mouse cursor in the upper left corner does cause the corner to turn blue, but nothing else happens. Going into system settings, screen borders, and changing anything about the corners make it work ONCE and only ONCE. Everytime settings are changed, the corner will work only ONE time. Looks like a perfectly reproductible regression/bug... SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro Linux ARM / current KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0 Qt Version: 5.15.6
Can you try again with Plasma 5.26.2 (released yesterday) and see if it's better now? A fix in there might have affected this.
Hello, Plasmashell 5.26.2 didn't solve the issue.
Plasmashell 5.26.3 didn't solve the issue either.
Can you open Present Windows using the Ctrl+F10 keyboard shortcut? Or is that broken too?
.
Yes, [CTRL]-F10 does indeed work (thanks for the shortcut I didn't know, it will help) but the hot corner does not, although it turns blue showing that “something should happen”. It works only ONCE after configuring it to “no action” then back to “Show windows on all desktops”, then no more until playng with config again. Event at session startup, it does not work.
Is the hotcorner broken for everything? Or just when assigned to the Present Windows effect? Are all corners affected, or just the one you're trying?
Hello, The upper left corner is broken with described behaviour, for any action you asssociate with it. But per your question I just tested and all the other 3 corners work good, as expected. That's a bit of a mystery...
Can you share your screen layout settings please?
Hello, Could you please be more specific about what exact information you would like (“screen layout” can mean a lot...) or if you would like screenshots of specific parts of my KDE settings ? TIA.
Screen layout, as in the arrangement of your screens in System Settings' Display Configuration page.
Created attachment 155540 [details] Screen layout settings Here you go !
With only one screen just like you, it's working for me on X11 with current git master FWIW. Could you try again with the Plasma 5.27 beta, or the final release of Plasma 5.27 in a few weeks?
