Bug ID: 442378
Summary: Window-minimisation animations switching their “focal
point” after connecting a second screen
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.22.5
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Window-minimisation animations switching their “focal point” after connecting a
second screen
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Minimise any window and watch the animation—the window disappears into its
spot in the icons-only task manager
2. Connect a second monitor/screen and enable the icons-only task manager there
as well
3. Minimise any window again and watch it disappear into its spot in the SECOND
SCREEN’S icons-only task manager
4. Disconnect the second monitor/screen
5. Minimise any window again and watch how there is no longer any animation
OBSERVED RESULT
– When minimising a window, Plasma would play a little animation of the window
disappearing into its respective spot.
– Connecting a second screen whose desktop also contains a bottom panel (an
Icons-only Task Manager), causes the “focal point” (for lack of a better word)
to shift to that second screen’s bottom panel.
– The minimising animation would now be played normally, however, the window
would disappear into the second screen’s panel’s icon.
– Disconnecting the second screen again, causes my Plasma to lose this “focal
point” altogether and the “Scale” animation would no longer be played at all,
while the “Magic Lamp” animation still works, but “sucks” the window into some
seemingly random point on the top of the screen.
– Everything is back to normal after a reboot.
EXPECTED RESULT
The animation doesn’t switch its focal/reference point to the second screen’s
task manager panel, but remains on the first screen.
