            Bug ID: 348229
           Summary: crash if I try to show slideshow in second VGA display
           Product: kipiplugins
           Version: 4.6.0
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: AdvancedSlideshow
          Assignee: kde-imaging at kde.org
          Reporter: marc at marcchamberlin.com

I am trying to set up my laptop to present a slideshow using the secondary VGA
port. This is connected to an older model InFocus projector that can only run
1024x768 or lower resolution. I cannot figure out any way to get this working
without it crashing. I cannot even put the Advance Slideshow setup window onto
the second display, to use the Start button, because the setup window will not
allow me to resize it so that I can see the entire slideshow setup window. I
tried to start the slideshow using Alt-t instead and it simply crashes.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attach a projector running 1024x768 resolution, or lower, to a second VGA
display port.
2. Configure desktop to extend onto second display, doesn't matter what
position but don't overlay or clone the desktop onto the two displays. There is
no way to run the slideshow in full screen mode if you do...
3. Try to start the Advance Slideshow in the second display. I have tried
various methods but am unable to figure out how it can or should be done. All
my efforts results in it crashing.

Actual Results:  
Crash

Expected Results:  
I expect to be able to run the slideshow in a second display.
