--- Comment #4 from Cristiano Guadagnino <crigu...@gmail.com> ---
I have a similar problem. Not sure if it is correct to comment on this bug, but
the underlying problem may be the same.

I have two external monitors next to each other.

In the past I have always been bothered by the fact that a lot of application
windows did not open on my primary monitor (which is the right one).

Now, after the recent update to plasma 5.23, the situation is much worse:
- most application windows open on the left screen
- even if I immediately drag them to the right one, they will still open on the
left one the next time
- dialogs always open on the left screen, even if the main window is on the
right one
- "start" menu opens on the left screen even if the button to open it is on the
right screen (I am using "Application Dashboard" on a top panel)
- sometimes even opening a context menu (right-click menu) on an icon on the
right screen will show the menu on the left screen

I am seeing David Edmundson reply on comment 2, saying that KDE never followed
the primary screen to open new windows. That may be ok, but I would at least
expect windows to open on the screen where the mouse pointer is.
That is not the case, unfortunately.
Note that, in "System Settings" => "Window Management" => "Focus" I have the
"Mutiscreen behavior" set as "Active screen follows mouse".

If you do not use the primary screen nor use the active screen, how do you
decide where to open a new window?

I am using openSuse Tumbleweed updated to version 20211021.
