Bug ID: 515826
Summary: 'accept focus' setting bugging out plasma pannel
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: rules

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Forcing a window rule with “Accept focus = No” on Firefox-based
Picture-in-Picture windows causes Plasma panels set to auto-hide/dodge windows
to behave as “Windows go below” while the PiP window is open.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a KWin window rule matching Firefox PiP windows by title
“Picture-in-Picture”.
2. Set rule: “Keep above others = Yes (Apply initially)”.
3. Set rule: “Accept focus = No (Force)”.
4. Configure a Plasma panel to auto-hide or dodge windows.
5. Open a video in Firefox and enable Picture-in-Picture.
OBSERVED RESULT
While the PiP window is open, the Plasma panel remains visible and behaves as
if set to “Windows go below”. Regular windows render underneath the panel
instead of triggering auto-hide/dodge. The issue persists after restarting
plasmashell and only resolves when the PiP window is closed.
EXPECTED RESULT
The panel should auto-hide or dodge windows normally when a window approaches
it.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.22.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The issue reproduces with Firefox and Firefox-based browsers (e.g., Zen) but
not with normal application windows. It appears specific to PiP windows. The
rule matches by title only (“Picture-in-Picture”), window class set to
unimportant, window type normal. The behavior is triggered specifically by
forcing “Accept focus = No”.
