Support for synced panels on multiple monitors is still not there.
It was present on Windows 17 years ago.
Even duplicating a panel on multiple monitors is not possible, at least for me this is basic multi monitor functionality.
Configure your panels as you like, change one monitor and the panels are gone.
There's an issue open since 2021 about this problem : https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=446654 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=446654
- neilsimp1 2y agoOdd, the fact that I couldn't have separate "panels" in Windows seemed like the bug/missing feature to me :).
- Timwi 2y agoI've been using Windows for more than 17 years and I have no clue what you're talking about; the term “panel” is not an established term in Windows’ desktop environment.
- mog_dev 2y agoIt is in KDE. KDE panel -> Windows Taskbar. I wrongly applied KDE terminology when talking about Windows.
- Gualdrapo 2y agoThat's not a "problem",the bug report says it's a feature you want to be implemented. I guess you could replicate your panel in the other monitor "by hand", or just duplicating the relevant entries and setting them up for the other monitor at plasmarc.
- mog_dev 2y agoAt least to me it's a major issue, and I'm not the only one who thinks this. As I said before Microsoft implemented it 17 years ago. This works only temporarily, when connecting another monitor then the settings are not propagated.
- RealStickman_ 2y agoI found this PR [1] yesterday which should implement a copy function for panels. But it's anyone's guess whether we'll get this functionality in Plasma or a QT6 port of Latte dock [2] [1] https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/4623 https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_reque...

- vbarrielle 2y agoI see. Not something I'm reliant on, but I can definitely see how it's a problem if your workflow depends upon panels and you often change monitors.
