Description Denis 2015-03-27 06:51:50 UTC
When desktop is stretched among two monitors (one on the left another on the right) and the panel is located vertically between two screens (e.g. on the left edge of the right screen), maximized windows ignore the panel. Windows are stretched filling the whole area of the screen and part of it is going under the panel (see the link with the screen shot).

The behaviour is like when panel visibility is set to "Windows go below", however it's set to "Always visible".

This doesn't happen when the panel is placed on the desktop's edge not screen edge (e.g. on the right side of the right screen). 



Reproducible: Always


Actual Results:  
Maximized windows go under the panel.

Expected Results:  
Maximized windows dos not go beyond the panel edge.

KDE version is  4.11.16-3.fc21, couldn't test this on other distros. Bug existed in previous KDE minor version (don't remember which one it was),  but is seems that all 4.11 versions are affected, regardless of disto.
