Bug ID: 499386
Summary: virtual desktop switching reverses direction,
sometimes fails
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: iestynap...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
With "Mouse & Touchpad" > "Screen Edges" > "Switch desktop on edge" set to
"Always enabled" and also "Window Management" > "Virtual Desktops" >
"Navigation wraps around" turned on, there is unexpected behaviour at the
boundaries of the virtual desktop grid.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
In a 2x2 virtual desktop grid:
1. Move mouse cursor to the top of the screen, windows move down and cursor is
placed at the bottom of the virtual desktop above.
2. Continue moving the mouse cursor upward to the top of that virtual desktop
to scroll past the grid's boundary and allow the wrap-around to move it to the
bottom virtual desktop.
OBSERVED RESULT
Windows move upward and cursor is placed at the bottom of the screen.
EXPECTED RESULT
Windows move downward and cursor is placed at the bottom of the screen,
consistent with behaviour in step 1 above.
Moreover, if you attempt to reverse this last navigation, virtual desktop
switching fails completely:
With cursor still at the bottom of the screen, move downward.
OBSERVED RESULT
Windows don't move, virtual desktop does not switch, but cursor is now at the
top of the screen.
EXPECTED RESULT
Reversal of the previous navigation: windows moving, virtual desktop switching
to the top desktop of the grid, cursor placed at the top of the screen.
