Description akhilesh 2016-01-27 11:08:46 UTC
If I have a fullscreen app such as a game or a media center like kodi running and I switch to another virtual desktop. The panel always gets messed up. 

For e.g overlapping taskmanager - as shown in the screenshot URL.

Another issue I had was when I click the konversation Icon it would open qbittorent and when I clicked qbittorent it would open my clipboard. This bug only occurs when I have at least 1 fullscreen app running and then switch to another virtual desktop.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a fullscreen app
2. Switch to another workspace / virtual desktop
3. Pannel applets and task manager will face issues.

Actual Results:  
buggy and sometimes unclickable / unusable UI.

Expected Results:  
Should not be bugged

Currently on the lastest plasma desktop offered by Manjaro.

Oh and it this error is also reproducable if I run a full screen application on one activity and switch to another.

Your link doesn't work.
Comment 3 David Edmundson 2016-02-06 00:12:23 UTC
Do you have

SystemSettings -> Display -> Compositor -> "Suspend compositor for full screen windows" ticked?

Hey,

I dont have "suspend compositor for full screen windows" ticked.

Also, here is another link that should work: https://u.teknik.io/vRf3q.png

As you can see, the task manager is bugged and I am also unable to use the system applets like the internet connectivity and kde connect applets.
