Bug ID: 498762
Summary: Incorrect named screens in window rules
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: re...@outlook.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In System Settings > Windows Management > Window Rules, the "Size & Position"
property when pinning window refers to monitors by numbers (e.g., 0, 1, 3).
However, in Display Configuration, screens are identified by model/serial
number. This makes it impossible to accurately determine which screen a window
rule will apply to before setting up a multi-monitor configuration.
Furthermore, when monitors wake up from sleep, the association between the
numbers and physical screens can change. This results in windows with specific
screen rules being reordered while the desktop configuration remains unchanged.
After a system restart, the window rules work correctly until next sleep
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. 2 or more monitors
2. Pin window to specific screen in window rules
OBSERVED RESULT
Can't identify the specific monitor
EXPECTED RESULT
Instead of numbers, the values should correspond to the identifiers used when
clicking 'Identify' in Display Configuration.
