Description Elias Probst 2015-11-19 21:01:51 UTC 
When an applet is moved in the area, usually covered by a currently hidden auto-hide panel, the applet will get "sucked" into the panel.

So it looks like the logic for moving applets from the desktop containment into a panel doesn't cover the use-case of a panel being hidden.

Running P5/KF5 from git master + Qt 5.5.1
Comment 1 Elias Probst 2015-11-19 21:03:00 UTC 
Looks like this is already described in #351217 - but as #351217 mixes several different issues, I'll keep this one here open instead of closing it as a DUP to have a single-issue-bug.
Comment 2 Alexander Mentyu 2017-08-31 15:39:37 UTC 
Confirming this bug in:

Distribution: KDE neon Developer Edition Unstable Branches
KDE Plasma Version: 5.10.90
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.37.0
Qt Version: 5.9.1
Kernel Version: 4.10.0-32-generic

Maybe panel could be shown in settings mode upon dragging of a widget - to point exact target place for dropping widget.

Yep, confirmed. Very unusual.
Comment 4 Nate Graham 2025-08-28 21:42:31 UTC 
This appears to be fixed as of today's git master (which will become Plasma 6.5), if not earlier.
