See my screencasted demonstration in the screencast I linked. I have a small laptop display left of a bigger monitor. Always when I try to move the panel across the screen border, it jumps to the right side. Sometimes plasma crashs doing that. In case I try to move the panel from the bottom position to the bottom position in the left screen, the panel jumps to the right side. It grows vertically so that I cannot see the sysicons anymore. It has to be deleted and recreated. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to move a panel from a larger screen to a smaller one
Just again the link to the screencast: http://static.demoup.com/fb/113/HXwaWrsoW1
Not seen that. Can I have: - output of xrandr -q - the backtrace when it crashed (from the dialog that pops up)
I have similar problems with moving the panels on three systems. All run Fedora 23 and all use intel chipsets.

I just tried for 15 minutes to recreate the crash and failed. Sometimes that happens all the time and sometimes not. I found out that I can move the panel successfully by clicking on the "change width" button after it has jumped to the wrong side.
I have the same issue with 3 same size screens. It doesn't always go the right side, but the opposite side. Sometimes, it blinks between the two screens for ~5s, then the original screen always wins.

Fedora 23 just updated to Qt 5.6 The problem went away for me after that.
I confirm. But now I can't make the panel vertical. That's a different issue though.
Closing this bug. If you still have an issue with plasma 5.7, please open a specific bug.
