Description Janek Bevendorff 2012-06-07 16:57:27 UTC

When there is a panel at the bottom of the screen and the widget explorer is opened, the panel overlaps it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add a panel to the bottom of your screen
2. Right click on the desktop and click "Add Widget"
3. Try to use the scrollbar in the widget explorer
Actual Results:  
The scrollbar can't be used because the panel overlaps it.

Expected Results:  
The widget explorer should be placed above the panel (i.e. it shouldn't touch the edge of the screen but the upper edge of the panel).

Could you post a screenshot of that?

Comment 2 Janek Bevendorff 2012-06-20 10:01:35 UTC

Sure.

As I wrote: you have to right-click on the desktop and then choose "Add Widgets".
The widget explorer is placed correctly, however, when you use the cashew button on the panel itself.
