Bug ID: 469503
Summary: UX: Disable window snapping back to old position in
layout mode "none"
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-present-windows
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: k...@fuchsnet.ch
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Technically the bug can be reproduced in "desktop grid", but code-wise I think
it's in present windows.
As per user requests due to this having been missing in the QML rewrite, a new
layout mode "None" was implemented, so that windows in desktop grid (which
triggers the present window effect) have their original size and position so
they can be moved around. This was implemented in the last release, however,
moving windows around (on the current virtual desktop, not moving it to other
desktops) does not work as expected, as the windows always snap back to their
previous position when moved.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Configure desktop grid to have the window layout "None"
2. Trigger desktop grid
3. Try to move a window to a new position
OBSERVED RESULT
Window snaps to a previous / fixed position
EXPECTED RESULT
Window is _exactly_ where the user places it and stays there
