plasma 5.5 widget problem [fixed]

Hi guys,

i have just installed plasma 5.5 on Arch Linux. It works very good, but the widget doesn't
work correctly. When I add a widget on my desktop, I can't move or resize the widget via drag drop.

Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?

In plasma 5 you have to click and hold on a widget to get at the icon menu for the settings and resize for each widget - once you get the menu it will disappear again within a few seconds.
