Description monstertoast2 2024-10-12 17:42:44 UTC

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use KDE Plasma with Wayland (X11 results in the panels overlapping, possibly another bug)
2. Create an "app menu" panel at the top and a blank panel on the side, both set to take the entire width/height
3. Reboot a few times
4. Log onto plasma desktop and open the "Power options" full screen menu and close it a few times

OBSERVED RESULT
The side panel shifts up a few pixels until opening the edit menu

EXPECTED RESULT
The panel doesn't move at all, it stays in the proper position

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Plasma 6.2.0, linux 6.11.3.arch1-1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Started happening after my system turned off from idling too long + the KDE 6.2.0 update happened, deleting ~/.local/share/kded6 fixed it until that happened again and now deleting said folder does nothing

Ah this. I'm pretty sure it's already fixed in 6.3.0; I was not able to reproduce it at all the last few timed I tries in response to bug reports (which I can't find not to properly mark this as a duplicate, sorry).

We can always re-open this if I was wrong.
