Description Julian Groß 2024-03-08 12:24:11 UTC
SUMMARY
Upgrading from Plasma Mobile 5 to 6 caused the bottom panel to always appear over top of any maximized window.

OBSERVED RESULT
The bottom panel overlaps with open windows.

EXPECTED RESULT
On Plasma Mobile 5, windows not maximize under the bottom panel, but leave that part "empty".

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: postmarketOS Edge (updated 2024-03-08)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Gesture-only mode was enabled before the upgrade to Plasma Mobile 6.

As a workaround, one can press Super + Up, to make the window maximize to only the top half of the screen.

Was fixed in 6.0.1, waiting for this to be packaged in Alpine: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-mobile/-/merge_requests/459

> Was fixed in 6.0.1

The issue still persists for me on:
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2

Is the KDE Frameworks version outdated, or is that irrelevant?
I will attach a screenshot of how it looks on Plasma 6.0.2.

Issue on Plasma 6.0.2.

Notice how the panel changed size, but still overlaps.
Comment 6 Devin Lin 2024-03-14 22:12:01 UTC
Hmm, is this a separate issue? I'm not sure if the window is actually under the bottom bar there, but the bottom bar certainly is too small. I have heard another report that this happened after an upgrade, could I have your ~/.config/plasmashellrc

Sorry, I uploaded the wrong screenshot. I have replaced it.

I will open a separate issue for this.

Is it know what is causing this? Otherwise I might do a git bisect.
