Description Christoph 2016-09-02 14:52:30 UTC

Panel is set to auto-hide → you open a plasmoid, e.g. your networkmanager in your systray → the extended plasmoid is still open, but without hover the panel hides → the plasmoid stays

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set your panel to auto-hide
2. open your nm-manager, optional: pin it
3. panel will hide

Actual Results:  
Panel hides

Expected Results:  
Panel should stay visible

This bug was fixed in an earlier version. I'm not sure, but I think it came again in version 5.6. Thanks!

Comment 5 Kai Uwe Broulik 2017-01-05 23:32:52 UTC

Can you explain? Why should the panel show up when you send a notification?

Comment 6 Christoph 2017-01-07 21:52:00 UTC

Sorry, my description was misleading/uncomplete

1. set your panel (which contains the systray) to auto-hide
2. run "notify-send -t 0 test", open your systray and close the message
3. notification area is still open but panel will hide

Comment 7 Kai Uwe Broulik 2017-01-07 23:31:04 UTC

Ah, I see, I can reproduce this bug, very weird, can you please file a separate bug report for this? Thanks. Closing this one, as it is fixed but there's some separate quirk with notifications :)
