Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.90) OS: Linux This is not the exact same issue, but is closely related: My second screen has an offset of 56 Pixels from the top, i.e., virtual desktop is 1080p in height, and the second screen shows the lower 1024 pixels of this in height. Now, if you have an autohide panel at the top screen edge, it will correctly appear on the screen at virtual position y=56. But the scroll-in animation is wrong, it appears like it would if it was aligned to the bottom edge. I guess there's a check somewhere like "if (y==0) top_edge_anim(); else bottom_edge_anim();" which is incorrect in this special case. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: - Set the virtual y position of the second screen to a value greater than 0 - Add an auto-hide panel and position it at the top screen edge - Move the mouse to the screen edge to make the panel appear Actual Results: The panel gets shown immediately with some spacing to the upper edge, then moves up to its correct position. When hiding, it moves back down. Expected Results: It should move down at the beginning, emerging from "under" the edge, and then slip back up in the end.

Git commit cbdd7295d100b19ec55d4b88f2a8113095439e26 by Martin Gräßlin. Committed on 10/12/2011 at 12:31. Pushed by graesslin into branch 'master'. Fixing incorrect clipping of sliding popups Make use of new extension of protocol for magic number -1. If offset is -1 KWin has to decide the offset. This fixes all the incorrect animations and allows us to perform clipping again by filtering out the window quads which should not be visible. Additionally the effect now sanitizes the offset. That is for e.g. Yakuake setting an offset of 0, but there is a strut on the top corner causing Yakuake not to appear on 0, but with an offset of the strut. Such cases are now considered as well and the animation is fixed.
