Bug ID: 473519
Summary: Multiple Battery and Brightness plasmoids do not sync
manual screen locking inhibition
Classification: Plasma
Product: Powerdevil
Version: 5.27.7
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: auberg...@outlook.com.au
CC: m...@ratijas.tk, natalie_clar...@yahoo.de
Target Milestone: ---
BACKGROUND
I have a laptop and sometimes plug it into an external screen, making a
multi-screen setup with one Panel per screen. On the first screen, I have a
System Tray that was put there when I installed Plasma, which has a Battery and
Brightness plasmoid contained within it. On the second screen, I have an
independent Battery and Brightness plasmoid on the right end of the Panel.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have yourself a setup like the one described above.
2. Open one of the Battery and Brightness plasmoids; tick 'Manually block sleep
and screen locking'.
3. Open the other Battery and Brightness plasmoid.
OBSERVED RESULT
The checkbox for 'Manually block sleep and screen locking' is not ticked.
EXPECTED RESULT
The checkbox should be ticked—that is, the two plasmoids should be synced.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux kernel: 6.4.10-zen2-1-zen
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.7
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.108.0
Qt Version: 5.15.10
ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Most importantly, when I inhibit screen locking from my secondary screen and
then unplug it, the inhibition remains active and I can't turn it off using the
plasmoid on my laptop screen--yes, I tried. The only way to turn it off again
is to plug in the external monitor and use the plasmoid on the secondary
screen, where the check box is still ticked.
Also, whether screen locking is inhibited or not seems to be a matter of A OR
B, i.e. if one checkbox or the other or both are ticked.
