--- Comment #63 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> --- Indeed, disabling auto-hide for fully-shared edges would run into problems for dynamic layouts where a panel might therefore have to switch between always visible or auto-hidden depending on the screen arrangement. That would be unpredictable and not ideal. For the use case where screens are touching only by a shared corner, I cannot reproduce the problem with Plasma 6 Wayland. An auto-hidden panel works as expected. And if it didn't, I would have been surprised and told you that it was most likely a bug with a different root cause. :) So let's consider that fixed, at least as of Plasma 6 Wayland. Now onto the tricky case of a shared edge where the sharing is not 100%. It's possible to position a non-full-width/height panel so that it's only attached to the part of a shared edge that's not actually being shared with another screen! In such a case, I think what we need is simply to make auto-hide work again, and not worry about the edge stickiness. But the moment the panel *does* touch a part of the edge that's shared with another screen, we would need the stickiness. It'll depend on whether this degree of conditional edge stickiness is possible to implement in KWin, I think. If all we can get is 100% sticky or 0% sticky, we'll have to turn it on for every shared edge that has an auto-hidden panel anywhere on it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
