SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
I've set the top left corner of screen edges to display a grid of virtual desktops. This has stopped working. I can still use the short cut keys in my case (ctrl+1, ctrl+2). Unfortunately virtual desktop 2 is a VM, and blocks host background commands. I have to minimise before I can use ctrl+1 to go to screen 1.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Swap position within screen edges. no effect
2. system update, reswap position in screen edges, no effect
3. guess I'll try a reboot, and retest as above

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens when mouse is moved into top left corner

EXPECTED RESULT
I should see a grid of all virtual desktops (two 2) in total

Thank you for the bug report!

However Plasma 5.18.8 is no longer eligible for support or maintenance from KDE; supported versions are 5.27, and 5.27 or newer. Please upgrade to a supported version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one.

If you need support for Plasma 5.18.8, please contact your distribution, who bears the responsibility of providing support for older releases that are no longer supported by KDE.

If you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to a supported version, feel free to re-open this bug report.
