Description

Hello, now I have another question. In this case, it would be the following: is it possible for me to configure so that new windows open on the left side instead of the right? Reason: I use the global menu in the form of an icon on the edge of the window, when I click to open this menu, the window opens on the right side, and the submenus are opened outside the screen (when I hover the mouse over them). If it opens on the left side instead of the default, I will be able to continue using my workflow normally. If it is possible, what would it be like?

Research direction

The issue does not identify a file or test; start by locating the KWin script logic that places new windows and read how the default side is selected. Confirm how the global-menu workflow is affected, then verify that a configurable left-side placement keeps submenus within the screen.
