            Bug ID: 412527
           Summary: KScreenlocker gets confused when changin displays
           Product: kscreenlocker
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
It seems that KScreenlocker only queries the display resolution once at lock
time and never again.
It doesn't matter if the display changes while KScreenlocker is shown or the
device is on standby (where all screens are off)

Example:
I lock my laptop while an external display is connected an acting as the
primary display, so KScreenlocker adjusts to that displays resolution. If I
then unplug that display to switch to the laptop's internal one, KScreenlocker
moves to the internal display too, which is correct of course. However, it
doesn't adjust to the new, lower resolution so only the top left corner will be
visible.
Something similar happens when switching from a smaller to a bigger display,
where KScreenlocker will be too small.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Lock screen while using a big display
2. Switch to smaller display

OBSERVED RESULT
KScreenlocker doesn't adjust to the new resolution

EXPECTED RESULT
KScreenlocker does adjust to the new resolution
