Bug ID: 514357
Summary: The "screen" property for Window Rules is ignored when
the application /window is launched
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version First 6.5.4
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: rules

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
(This applies to Wayland session). The "screen" property for Window Rules is
ignored when the application /window is launched. If you create the rule AFTER
the window was created, KWin will move the window to the correct screen, but it
will not do it upon launch.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
0. Have two or more screens
1. Pick a random app (doesn't matter) and set the Window rules for it.
2. Right click on the Window title and do "More Actions" -> "Configure Special
Window Settings" (this bug applies to Configure Special Application settings as
well)
3. Add a Property "Screen". Set the attribute to "Force" and either screen 1
or 2.
4. After hitting apply, you will notice that the window will jump to the
selected screen, yay!
5. Relaunch the app, and notice that it will NOT go to selected screen. Booo!
6. Other properties like fullscreen will work but screen will not be set for a
new window when the rule already exists.
OBSERVED RESULT
You can only set the screen after it opens
EXPECTED RESULT
I should be able to force an app to show up on a specific screen each time
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.20.0
Qt Version: 6.9.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This appears to be a Wayland specific issue.
