Description Achim Bohnet 2016-09-14 12:31:43 UTC 
neon dev unstable (kde git master):
The panel ignores resizing a virtualbox window and stays at the same position as before.
So it's hidden when height is lower than before or it's no longer at the bottom if height is increased (see attachment)

neon dev stable (kde 4.7.4+git) it still works:  Panel is always at the bottom of vbox window after resizing it horizontally.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Decrease (or increase)  height of vbox window


Actual Results:  
Panel is hidden (or no longer at bottom) of vbox window

Expected Results:  
Panel sticks at the bottom as before  in-/decreasing the height of the vbox window as it was in 5.7.4 and older releases.

in-/decrease the horizontal vbox window size fixes the wrong position or the window: panel is again at the botton of the desktop.

I have not tested this case yesterday so I can't tell if it's a regression due to yesterdays fix of
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=368741 or just it's vertical equivalent, that I've forgotten to test.

This should be fixed, can you retest and reopen if you still have the problem.

Thx David!

 * fixed in neon dev unstable (master)
 * and already backported in neon dev stable  5.8 beta

But right now I've found another panel 'horizontal resize' bug.  I'll keep  you subscribed ;-)
