Bug ID: 445443
Summary: Wayland: Issues with the display switcher widget or
popup (Meta+P) - I dare you to play with it until it
breaks
Product: KScreen
Version: git
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Plasma Applet

SUMMARY
On Wayland I'm experiencing issues with the quick display switcher thingy that
pops up with Meta+P, as well as its system tray applet counterpart. If you have
a laptop and an external display I encourage you to try switching between all
the options for a minute (on Wayland), you are guaranteed to run into various
bugs.
Among the issues I personally found are:
- If you first set only the internal display to be active and then switch to
only the external display or vice versa, nothing happens. You have to choose
"extend to the left/right" first and then choose to switch to the external
(/internal) display only in order for it to work
- Sometimes when switching to the internal display, the wallpaper is cut off
(likely because the external screen has a different aspect ratio)
- Sometimes when switching around, one of the monitors will have a black
background (no wallpaper)
- When choosing any option at all from the quick display switcher, there seems
to be a ~25% chance that it will freeze the session completely except for the
mouse cursor, and you can't do anything but restart the PC or switch to a TTY
