Bug ID: 448552
Summary: Inconsistent virtual desktop defaults
Product: systemsettings
Version: git-stable-Plasma/5.24
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_kwin_virtualdesktops

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
When trialing the new 5.24 on KDE Neon untsable with highlight changed settings
on I noticed that the virtual desktop KCM was highlighted even though this was
fresh VM with no changes. I hit the defaults button and noticed that this sets
a single virtual desktop but number of rows to 2. This means that when you
click away the number of rows is changed back to 1 as there is onyl a single
desktop and the highlight function correctly see this as a change.
The default setting should be made consistent so that the user isn't isn't
alerted to a change they didn't make. This should probably mean setting the
default number of rows to 1 to match with the default number of desktops. The
other option would be to default to 2 desktops over 2 rows by default if having
multiple virtual desktops is a desirable default setting.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Starting with a fresh install
2. Select highlight changed settings in System settings
3. Navigate to virtual desktop kcm see highlight
4. Hit defaults (which is 1 virtual desktpop and 2 rows) then apply
5. Navigate to different screent then back
OBSERVED RESULT
The number of rows has been set back to 1 and the setting is now highlighted as
changed again
EXPECTED RESULT
When I reset to default no setting should be highlighted as changed for that
screen
