Bug ID: 454950
Summary: Floating panel does not float with relevant panel
behaviors
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.24.90
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Panel
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: doncb...@gmail.com
CC: niccolo.venera...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
As of 5.24.90, the Plasma panel can now float. Unfortunately, it seems to only
float on a near empty desktop. Relevant options like Windows Can Cover or
Windows Go Below, or perhaps even Auto Hide do not change the behavior and the
panel simply acts like a thicker version of the regular panel.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set panel to Floating
2. Set it to any of the 3 options: Windows Can Cover, Windows Go Below, or Auto
Hide
3. Maximize any window or move it such that it falls under the panel
OBSERVED RESULT
The panel fills in the space and basically behaves like the current panel
EXPECTED RESULT
The panel floats, only properly docking itself for the Always Visible state to
minimize distraction. Otherwise, an auto-hidden panel should float, appearing
and disappearing when requested, as the content behind it is window content.
Likewise, Windows Can Cover, and Windows Go Below also ensure that window
content is the only background of the panel.
