Description Holmes 2024-06-24 16:51:14 UTC 
SUMMARY

When a window that is configured to autostart and its position has been forced to a fixed position via the window rules settings to overlap with the task panel, either in front or behind, on plasmashell restart, the window gets pushed up by the taskbar and is no longer at its fixed position that is supposed to be forced.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a window on autostart so it always starts when the system starts
2. Place the window over the task panel and enforce its position in the window rules settings. (Position, Force, X, Y)
3. Restart plasmashell or reboot

OBSERVED RESULT
The task panel pushed the window up and the window is no longer at its enforced position.

EXPECTED RESULT
Since the position is set on "Force" the window position should never change, even on restart. The window should be on the same spot that was set in the window rules setting and not get pushed up by the task panel.
