Bug ID: 459970
Summary: Panel's visibility "Auto Hide" setting doesn't hide
when it should, most of the time
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.25.5
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Panel
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
Panel's visibility "Auto Hide" setting doesn't hide when it should, most of the
time.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a panel set to "Auto Hide" and have at least two application windows
opened, maximized for the best results.
2. Make sure the cursor isn't over the panel during the process.
3a. Switch application (for example with Alt+Tab; most methods produce the same
result).
3b. Open a new application (for example with KRunner; most or all methods
produce the same result).
3c. Close an active application so that the focus is switched to another
application
4. Interact with another application
OBSERVED RESULT
The panel that was set to "Auto Hide" doesn't hide even though:
1. the cursor isn't over it
2. it blocks the view of the maximized window
3. the user interacts with an application
EXPECTED RESULT
The panel should hide the moment or with a slight delay, cursor isn't over it.
Additionally, it should stay hidden all the time when the user isn't
interacting with it or when a window that needs attention isn't being
signalized.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 36 KDE
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.5

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
User could be provided with an option when the panel should leave it's hidden
state - for example:
1. when the desktop is focused - permanently visible
2. when user switches application - briefly
3. when user moves the cursor to the panel's edge of the screen - until cursor
leaves the panel area
4. when desktop/activity changes
