Bug ID: 464937
Summary: Meta shortcut for Application Launchers / Kickoff does
not work for other screens if the launcher is not on
the primary display
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.26.90
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Application Launcher (Kickoff)
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
***
Happens on both Wayland and X11.
If you add a launcher to a panel on a screen that is not primary, the shortcut
will only work if the mouse is within that screen, otherwise you have to use
Meta+F1 (or whatever you bound it to) to activate it.
However, if you put it on your primary screen it works as normal.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up multiple displays
2. Add a new panel to a non-primary screen
3. Add any application launcher to it (application dashboard, application
launcher, menu 11, etc.)
4. [optional] Bind a shortcut
5. Move mouse to different screen
6. Press Meta
OBSERVED RESULT
Application Laucher will not open unless the mouse is on the same screen as the
launcher.
EXPECTED RESULT
When Meta key is pressed, Application Launcher should expand regardless of what
screen the cursor is on, provided there are no other launchers on that screen.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
