Second screen/resolution change does not update size #6

Open bmihaila opened 11 years ago

Hi

When opening the kwin script with a second screen that has a different resolution the script does not update its size to be full-screen but still has the old size thus covering only part of the screen. I am not sure if this can be reproduced by just changing the resolution or one needs a second screen for that. Will try to find out later what is the exact cause.

I know and I think is a PlasmaCore.Dialog issue which is going probably to be droped by providing a different approach to create KWin scripts and not through PlasmaCore.Dialog... We see and wait... :)

I have a two screens set up, approximately the same size. However the main screen is landscape, and the other is portrait. I have the bottom edges of the screens lined up which means that the main screen's Y starts at 600 instead of the typical 0. That results in the top half of the kwin dialog getting cut off, making it unusable.

I tried to modify the kwin script to hardcode the screenY to 600, but I didn't understand what was going on. I got it to show up in some different locations, but I couldn't get t to consistently show at the top of my main screen.

In any case, for now, I've gone back to just using the plasmoid. If you get around to working on this, please make sure that you don't assume that the screen is positioned at 0,0.
