Description Derek Christ 2021-12-12 12:52:14 UTC

SUMMARY
In X11, when using global scaling (I tested with 2x), it is no longer possible to click applets in the panel that are right on the edge of the screen by moving the cursor in the edge of the screen.
For example the kickoff menu cannot be opened by moving the cursor to the bottom left of the screen and the "Show desktop" / "Minimize all windows" applet cannot be triggered by moving the cursor in the bottom right corner.
You have to exactly click the button.
This issue does not occur when the global scaling is disabled, and I also cannot confirm this bug on Wayland.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set global scaling to 2x on X11
2. Log out, back in
3. Move cursor to the bottom left corner or bottom right corner and try to trigger an applet

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens

EXPECTED RESULT
Menus should open / applets should trigger

Is it broken for the Task Manager too, or only for all other applets? Or does it affect every panel applet?

See Bug 428109.

The task manager is the only applet that is not affected, as far as I can tell. I also noticed that this bug only appears when the height of the applet is bigger than a certain amount.

Marking as a duplicate of Bug 428109 and re-opening it, then.
