Description Dik Takken 2003-11-09 12:05:31 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1.93)

I configured kicker to auto-hide immediately after the mouse leaves kicker. Also, I have a external taskbar that behaves the same. Kicker itself sits on the bottom of the screen (centered, auto-resize), while the external taskbar is in the lop-left corner (auto-resize). 

When the mouse pointer hits the bottom of the screen, kicker starts jumping in- and out of view four or five times before it stays 'up'. It goes very fast, looks as it kicker is flashing. The same thing happens with the external taskbar when I touch the upper-left corner of the screen.

It doesn't happen every time the mouse hits the edge of the screen, but it should be reproducable with a few tries.

It does *not* happen when the autohide delay is non-immediate.
