I like having my panel at the top screen edge. I realized that all widgets that use a sliding animation (lancelot, device notifier, panel settings, new add widget) remain partially visible after they slide out of the screen again (in this case up). Items with fade in animations (kmix, klipper) do not have this problem. When the panel is at the bottom edge, the problem is not apparent. The remaining parts disapper again when a refresh is triggered.
I also tried a vertical panel, no problems there.

could this be a kwin problem?

I guess the sliding animations are calculated for blottom panels. When I change the height of the panel, the remaing part size aso changes. Its roughly always 90% of the panel size

is the piece of visible window "usable" or it's just garbage painted?
i.e if you click on it does it disappear?
i really think it's kwin related
