Description Riccardo Robecchi 2022-08-15 15:23:34 UTC
SUMMARY
When using floating panels, maximising a window on a different still makes the panel un-float as if it were directly in contact with the maximised window. I have tested this with a vertical screen arrangement.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In a dual-monitor setup, place a floating panel on one of the screens
2. Maximise a window on the other screen

OBSERVED RESULT
The panel is not floating any more.

EXPECTED RESULT
The panel stays floating as there is no maximised window in direct contact with it.
