When focus stealing prevention is high and there's a maximized window on the screen, the Kicker menu doesn't show up (I assume it's hidden behind that application). This is a regression compared to KDE4. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set window manager->focus stealing prevention to "high" 2. Maximize the window 3. Click on the menu icon on the panel Actual Results: Nothing happens Expected Results: Panel shows up Fedora 22 x86_64
Are you referring to Kicker, ie. the "application menu" (which works here) or the "application dashboard" (which does not with high focus stealing prevention)?
Sorry, it was the application menu. I confused the names of the two.
I can confirm, most plasmoid popups don't show up reliably with high focus stealing prevention.

Still happens in 5.6.1 (openSUSE RPMs). FSP set to high or extreme, focus follows mouse/mouse priority, the menu will not pop (there's a quick flash in the taskbar, but the menu never pops up). Oddly enough, the other day I'm quite sure I got it to pop by clicking on an open part of the desktop (or moved to a different virtual screen) to defocus everything and it worked, but it didn't today, and I had to run systemsettings5 in a terminal window to reset FSP to medium to be able to get the menu. I just tried again, and I got it to pop in high but not extreme. So there would appear to be something funny going on.

Still an issue with 5.7.2 in openSuse's RPMs.
The menu shows up on 5.8.5, however krunner doesn't react to alt+F2 with "High".
Still in 5.9. With prevention set to high, the kicker menu pops up *if no window has focus* (e. g. if I click on the background, or I'm in a virtual desktop with no windows on it). If a window has focus, it doesn't pop. With prevention set to extreme, it flat out doesn't pop regardless.
I can confirm the previous comment - what I saw before was likely due to schizophrenic kwin which focused things randomly despite restarting.
Bug 374443 seems related.
Still happening on my system opensuse:tumbleweed:20170726 Qt: 5.9.1 KDE Frameworks: 5.36.0 KDE Plasma: 5.10.4 kwin 5.10.4 kmail2 5.5.3 akonadiserver 5.5.3 Kernel: 4.11.8-2-default Nouveau: 1.0.15_1.2
Is this a duplicate of bug 377914? Or can it be fixed in Plasma independently?
