Bug ID: 507345
Summary: Clicking the Resolution drop-down obscures current
resolution
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version First 6.3.4
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_kscreen
Assignee: kscreen-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: aspotas...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Clicking the Resolution drop-down obscures current resolution.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click in the middle of the drop-down UI element labeled "Resolution:"
2.
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
See screencast.
The user cannot know what is the current resolution because the drop-down
1. obscures the screen label in the screen layout diagram on top
2. obscures the clickable area of the drop-down UI element
3. doesn't highlight the currently selected resolution in the drop-down popup
list
Also, the drop-down popup highlights the item under mouse pointer which is not
the currently selected resolution, this may mislead users.
EXPECTED RESULT
User should be able to easily answer the questions "am I using the highest
resolution available?" and "how does the current resolution compare to the
maximum resolution available?".

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm filing this bug against kcm_kscreen rather than Qt6/KF6 because there may
be ways to fix/mitigate the issue without touching Qt6/KF6. For example, the
KCM could show the drop-down below the clickable element only (that might
require migrating from QtQuick to QtWidgets, can't wait for it tbh).
