Description Matthew Sheffield 2019-12-24 20:09:00 UTC
SUMMARY
Panels of any sort (including Latte) that are set to autohide and fixed to the left desktop edge do not appear when the user mouses over them.

Panels affixed to another edge appear as normal.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a panel affixed to the left side
2. Set it to autohide
3. Move mouse over the panel



OBSERVED RESULT
User must repeatedly move mouse over the area to get the panel to appear.


EXPECTED RESULT
Panel should appear immediately when the perimeter of the panel is reached by the cursor.
