Description Jean-Marie Favreau 2016-08-13 10:51:02 UTC

This bug is kind of similar to the plasma4 bug #305198 (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=305198).

Steps to reproduce:
 * use a dual screen (such as the internal screen of a laptop and an HDMI screen)
 * set them to be adjacent along an edge (in my case, the upper edge of the internal screen)
 * add a panel along this edge (in my case, in the bottom edge of the external screen)
 * set the following visibility parameters:
  * Always Visible: on
  * Auto Hide, Windows Can Cover, Windows Go Bellow: off

Result: maximized windows in the screen that contains the panel (in my case, the external screen) are going bellow it.

Expected result: maximized windows stays in the reduced screen (external screen minus the panel).

Thanks for the report Jean-Marie.

I've just tested this on Plasma from git master and I cannot reproduce the issue.

Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved, thanks.
