Description symon 2010-12-30 08:50:08 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.90) 
OS:                Linux

When a Window is open and not minimised... any program, lets just say a browser... And the "add widgets" option is selected, the bottom widget selection panel pops up then quickly disappears again. The window that is open somehow interferes with it by getting minimised as you click on "add widgets" just before this occurs.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
open any program, Not minimised, but not fully maximised... Click on "add widgets"

Actual Results:  
open window minimises, widget panel pops up as usual then quickly disappears

Expected Results:  
allowed you to choose widgets from the widget panel without quickly disappearing whether you have an open window or not
