Description Holger 2020-08-22 22:01:21 UTC

SUMMARY
Autohide of panel on drag'N'drop freezes.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. select some text in Firefox or a file in Dolphin
2. drag it over auto-hidden panel so the panel appears
3. drag the mouse of the panel again
4. abort the drag by pressing Esc

OBSERVED RESULT
a) The panel does not hide by itself anymore, you can switch applications and it stays, it requires a mouse-over to go away.
b) Once it is hidden, a second drag'N'drop will not show the panel again - it requires switch of virtual desktop to reset.

EXPECTED RESULT
A) The panel shall hide as usual, when the drag operation leaves the panel same as the panel hides on ordinary mouse-exit.
B) The panel shall reappear on a second drag-operation not requiring an intermediate VD-switch

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Kubuntu 20.04
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.68.0
Qt Version: 5.12.8
Kernel Version: 5.4.0-42-generic
OS Type: 64-bit

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
bug 379508 complains stuck autohide - but on opening new window
bug 364456 drags a window over autohide panel to switch to next virtual desktop
I set severity to minor, because the effects easily reset after a VD-switch

Comment 2 Niccolò Venerandi 2024-08-28 09:49:09 UTC

I just tried this and cannot reproduce. Does this still happen on Plasma 6.1?

Comment 3 Holger 2024-09-01 20:13:40 UTC

My expectation:
- Auto-UNhide on mouse-over (irrespective of drag or not)
- Auto-HIDE again on mouse-exit (again irrespective of drag or not)

Steps:
1. drag enters panel (it shows and stays visible despite mouse exit with drag)
2. pressing ESC outside the panel cancels the drag, but doesn't hide the panel (you can even alt+Tab to another app)
3. secondary mouse-over + mouse-exit without drag hides the panel (seemingly repairing the autohide)
4. secondary new drag-attempt cannot show the panel again until you switch virtual desktops
