The cursor is offscreen behind the red arrow
SUMMARY
I have a single 4K monitor setup.
I don't know the exact monitor model, but it is an LG monitor with 3840x2160
resolution.
I've noticed that since updating from Kubuntu 23.10 to Kubuntu 24.04, the
bounding box of the monitor is calculated incorrectly.
On the right side of the monitor, there is weird behavior:
1. In the upper right corner until about half the screen, the bounds of the
screen are insofar too large as that the cursor can completely vanish offscreen
2. On the lower right corner, the screen suddenly gets thinner:
A few pixels of the cursor are still visible when trying your hardest to leave
the screen. (attachment 2)
You can especially notice that while scrolling:
If you scroll from the top down while the cursor is offscreen, you can only
scroll until you reach a specific point on the y axis, at which the scroll
stops and only continues once you move the cursor a few pixels to the left.
(attachment 3)
Notably, the bug does not occur if you are already dragging something from a
visible point as then the dragging stops at the intended border. (attachment 4)
EXPECTED RESULT
I cannot leave the screen with the cursor, scrolling works as expected
