Title:
With scaling enabled right-positioned panel overlaps maximized windows
Status in budgie-desktop package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in budgie-desktop source package in Jammy:
In Progress
Status in budgie-desktop source package in Kinetic:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
* If the panel is positioned on the right side it overlaps maximized
windows when scaling is 200%. The error also occurs with fractional
scaling.
* This is a usability issue for any user who uses right-aligned
panels (for example RTL users such as arabic may use right-aligned
panels as opposed to left-aligned panels for 'roman' based languages
and locales).
* There is no impact on kinetic users since the fix is already
included in the kinetic budgie-desktop version.
[ Test Plan ]
* Using budgie-desktop-settings create a panel and align it to the
right-side.
* logout and login
* open an application and maximise the application. Note that the
right-side window controls are visible and accessible i.e. not behind the right
aligned panel.
* From a regression testing point of view - move the newly created panel to
each of the two other sides of the screen not occupied.
* repeat the open application and maximise app test and note that the window
contents are NOT obscured / hidden by the moved panel.
* move the panel back to the right-side of the screen
* Using budgie-control-center set scaling to be either 100% or use any
fractional scaling value
* logout and login
* open an application and maximise the application. Note that the right
side window controls are now obscured/hidden behind the right aligned panel
* from the proposed repo install the following packages:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install budgie-desktop budgie-core libbudgie-plugin0
libbudgie-private0 libbudgietheme0 libraven0 gir1.2-budgie-1.0
* Logout and login
* open an application and maximise the application. Note that the
right-side window controls are visible and accessible i.e. not behind the right
aligned panel.
* Using budgie-control-center set scaling to 100% i.e. no fractional scaling
* logout and login
* open an application and maximise the application. Note that the
right-side window controls are visible and accessible i.e. not behind the right
aligned panel.
* From a regression testing point of view - move the newly created panel to
each of the two other sides of the screen not occupied.
* repeat the open application and maximise app test and note that the window
contents are NOT obscured / hidden by the moved panel.
[ Where problems could occur ]
* The change is specifically around the way panels and its dimensions
are calculated for creating Xorg struts. Regressions would be
expected to be immediately visible when panels are on different edges
and an application is maximised on the screen.
* The UB team has tested this and have confirmed that the upstream fix has
not introduced regressions
https://github.com/BuddiesOfBudgie/budgie-desktop/issues/145
* The test plan includes testing the regression possibilities by examining
panels on all sides of the screen.
[ Other Info ]
* N/A
----
If the panel is positioned on the right side it overlaps maximized
windows when scaling is 200%. The error also occurs with fractional
scaling.
Budgie version = budgie-desktop 10.6.1
Operating system = Ubuntu Budgie 22.04
Steps to reproduce the issue:
* Fresh Ubuntu Budgie Installation
* Budgie Desktop Settings: Move given panel to the right
* Budgie Control Center: Apply scaling 200% (or any fractional scaling)
* Maximize any application window
The maximized window takes the full screen width and is overlapped by
the panel.
