Yes you're right. Also I didn't mean any value judgement on this. I love plasma devs :). I suppose what I meant was that from what I read elsewhere, it was a decision not to implement it because it was "confusing" and "only dealt with panel placement". See first comment on this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/ae8czw/plasma_wayland_works_great_but_how_do_i_set_a/ > It sounds like you are basically looking for a way to clone one screen's > layout onto another one or exchange the two, and have previously been using > the X11 primary display feature to approximate the feature. Would that be > accurate? I suppose what I meant here is that what the Primary Display feature actually does is cloning (actually switching) one screen widget (including panels) layout into another screen, but "only" does it for one screen layout. So the proposal is, if the feature is to come back, maybe a cool thing would be to be able to do it for multiple widget layouts (if say a user has/wants different widgets on different screens), which would make switching between different screen arrangements very versatile and convenient. And then create a separate section / title in KCM to manage this which describes what the feature is actually about (panel and widget layout) so it stops being confused with the Active Screen thingy. But if this is too complicated, just bringing back Primary Screen would be fine for many use cases. Maybe just with renaming the Primary Screen tick box in Kscreen settings as something like "Primary widget layout" (I'm not great for finding sexy feature title, am I). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
