Ahaa, found the issue. I changed the "Switch desktop on edge" option to "always" which explains why the panel was reluctant to display - even though I don't have a 2 row desktop setup. Seems like the screen edge feature hijacks these events in this case. Anyways, as long as you use either "Disabled" or "Only when moving Windows" option, the behavior is exactly like @Tony described - behind windows, but displays if user moves mouse to the edge. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
