SUMMARY Two CachyOS users having the same issue with our secondary monitor. On the secondary monitor, we right click, and click on "Desktop and Wallpaper". "Layout" says "Folder View", but we cannot place icons on our secondary monitor, not make a square selection with our mouse. This behavior would be expected if our "Layout" said "Desktop". Interestingly, if I choose "Desktop", press Apply, then choose "Folder View" again, and press apply, the Folder View suddenly works as expected. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Turn on computer as normal 2. Try placing a folder on my second monitor, it doesn't work, the layout is in desktop mode 3. Check the Desktop Folder Settings, it says the layout is in folder view 4. Change to Desktop, apply, change to Folder View, apply, now it's truly in folder view and I can place my folder on it OBSERVED RESULT PC thinks it's in Folder View, behaves like it's in Desktop View EXPECTED RESULT Folder View works SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: CachyOS Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 Kernel Version: 6.17.7-3-cachyos (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 20 × 12th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-12700F Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (31.2 GiB usable) Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
