The last time i saw the Charge Limit section was when i changed the settings to stop charging at 60% and start at 40%. Since then, when it has power, the battery is obligingly staying between 40% and 60%. However when i bring up the "Advanced Power Settings" screen, the "Charge Limit" section shows for maybe a quarter of a second, then quickly disappears.

i'm guessing this is a bug in systemsettings5. Is this how best to report it?

(i first reported this on ubuntu focal: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc ... ug/1951661)

The symptoms are the same on Manjaro:
