SUMMARY
Panel editor options still appear even after exiting edit mode

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open edit mode
2. modify system tray
3. exit edit mode (not sure about the exact steps)

OBSERVED RESULT
when hovering over the bottom panel, the items are unclickable, but rather a 4 directional arrow appears that allows you to displace items and show options for each items when clicked.

EXPECTED RESULT
no editor mode options should appear, and items should be clickable normally

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora KDE 40
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2

I can't reproduce this with Plasma 6.1.1 (neon live), Plasma 6.1.2 (Tuxedo OS) or Plasma 6.1.80 (neon unstable).

Can you be a bit more explicit about step 2? I've tried moving, clicking, right-clicking and opening the configuration dialogs (through the tooltip and through the context menu) to "modify the system tray". But each time, either edit mode remains open, or closes and the panel can be interacted with normally.

It is quite possible that there is a certain sequence of steps that leads to this, but I would need more information to find and reproduce this

right click on the bottom panel
show panel configuration
delete panel
undo
exit edit mode

now the panel is stuck in edit mode

Thanks! I can reproduce this on Plasma 6.1.1, but not on any later version.

This is fixed in Plasma 6.1.2, with this commit: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/libplasma/-/commit/ccfbf390d2ae4557adba049531980f783b726710

I'm marking this as a duplicate of the original bug. If you can still reproduce this with Plasma 6.1.2 or later, please re-open the original bug.
