Created attachment 185887 [details] An image showing two overlapping panels in edit mode with one Panel Settings dialogue open, showing the same widget in the upper right corner of both panels SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. create overlapping panels in any corner of the screen, one horizontal, the other vertical 2. place a different widget in the corner of each 3. restart plasmashell OBSERVED RESULT the panel chosen to be on top seems to change randomly upon starting plasma shell EXPECTED / DESIRED RESULT there should be an option on the Panel Settings dialogue to set a "priority" or "layer" which would control which panel appears above and which panel appears below SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: CachyOS Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.10.0 Kernel Version: 6.17.3-1-cachyos-bore-lto (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × AMD Ryzen 5 3400G with Radeon Vega Graphics Memory: 16 GiB of RAM (13.6 GiB usable) Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The current solution is to put the same widget in the corner of both panels, with the panels sized in such a way that the icon appears in the same position. This is not ideal because it makes duplicate widgets a necessity.
