Bug ID: 458065 Summary: Windows opening lower at each start Product: kde Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: minor Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org Reporter: pasdabonneme...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY There are a bunch of applications that start with their window always lower on the screen at each start. When the application is fully closed (not still open in the background) and reopen, it is a bit lower than when closed. With successive openings and closings, the effect forces to regularly raise up windows. CASES WHERE IT APPLIES It doesn't affect applications that keeps opening only on the middle of the screen, only windows which return to their previous place at start. It only affect windows that are floating, not full-screen windows. It can affect both Flatpak and Snap format. They are some applications with those conditions that are not effected by this. Some Examples (various cases) : - Discord (Flatpak) : Affected (if fully closed only) - Spotify (Flatpak) : Affected - Visual Studio Code (Snap) : Affected + Thunderbird (Snap) : not effected because always open in center + Blender (Flatpak) : not affected because always open in full-screen + Brave (Snap) : not affected and still keep old position (so satisfying bug conditions without having it) + Gimp (Flatpak) : not affected and still keep old position (...) + Clementine Music Player (Flatpak) : not affected and still keep old position (even if fully closed) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open an application affected by the bug, like Spotify. 2. Set the application in floating windows at a precise height that is easy to locate (for example by aligning with another window or an element of the wallpaper). 3. Close the application. If the application can be remain open in the background, close it also in background. 4. Re-open the application. 5. See the difference of height from previous location. OBSERVED RESULT The application is lower than before (if it is an application affected by the bug). The height is not related to the height of the task-bar - because my task-bar is on the top I thought that was what was causing the bug. - but the height difference seems to be the same than the application tittle-bar. EXPECTED RESULT When the application keeps previous position, it should keep exactly previous position, not moving down from it.
