--- Comment #45 from jackdinn <j...@jackdinn.co.uk> ---
i just made a rough and ready hackup bash script to watch the panel. Its been
working for me since this whole thing started (some time around X-mas).

```
❱cat /home/greg/bash/monitor_plasma_panel.sh
#!/bin/bash
sleep 15
# Log file path
LOG_FILE="/home/greg/bash/monitor_plasma_panel.log"

# Command to restart Plasma
RESTART_COMMAND="plasmashell --replace &"

# Panel window properties
PANEL_NAME="plasmashell"
PANEL_HEIGHT=48

# Function to log messages
log_message() {
    echo "$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') - $1" >> "$LOG_FILE"
}

# Function to check the panel status
check_panel_status() {
    local panel_info
    panel_info=$(xwininfo -name "$PANEL_NAME" 2>/dev/null)

    if [[ -z "$panel_info" ]]; then
        log_message "Panel not found."
        return 1
    fi

    # Extract the height of the panel
    local current_height
    current_height=$(echo "$panel_info" | awk '/Height:/ {print $2}')

    if [[ -z "$current_height" ]]; then
        log_message "Unable to determine panel height."
        return 1
    fi

    if [[ "$current_height" -lt 3 ]]; then
        log_message "Panel height less than 3: $current_height (expected
$PANEL_HEIGHT)."
        return 2
    fi

    # log_message "Panel is running normally with height $current_height."
    return 0
}

# Monitoring loop
while true; do
    check_panel_status
    status=$?

    if [[ $status -ne 0 ]]; then
        log_message "Panel issue detected. Restarting Plasma..."
        eval "$RESTART_COMMAND"
        sleep 5  # Wait for Plasma to restart
    fi

    # Adjust the monitoring interval as needed (in seconds)
    sleep 10
done
```


However, i have disabled it atm because i got a system update today including
plasmashell 6.3.4, so we shall see how 6.3.4 goes but im not holding my breath.
