Created attachment 102026 [details] video.webm I created new panel with icons in KDE Plasma 5.8.2 with KF26. I configured it to be auto-hidden and centered. But settings will not survive changing display resolution. Panel must keep auto-hide and centering settings accross display resolutions See video.
And this is especially annoying in VirtualBox while resizing VirtualBox guest windows results in changed display resolution and thus again and again loosing auto-hidden and centered look of panel
complete panels settings, are saved separatedly per screen resolution, because settings of position and size would go lost otherwise when switching to screens of different sizes
Can we please have option to enforce keep at least two options (alignment and hiding) to be persistent across resolutions?

Git commit 8d58eefc5580133fe81e065e26975fa6c337ad93 by Marco Martin. Committed on 11/01/2017 at 19:46. Pushed by mart into branch 'master'. panel alignment/visibility not resolution dependent Summary: panel size and position in pixel is dependent from screen resolution, this saved in different config groups, as it should. but two properies of panelview shouldn't change between resolution, that are visibility and alignment, otherwise the panel changes behavior in an unpredictable way when resolution changes. Test Plan: started plasmashell with old config, values have been correctly migrated to the parent group that's common for all resolutions Reviewers: davidedmundson, #plasma Reviewed By: davidedmundson, #plasma Subscribers: davidedmundson, plasma-devel Tags: #plasma Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D4087 M +13 -5 shell/panelview.cpp https://commits.kde.org/plasma-workspace/8d58eefc5580133fe81e065e26975fa6c337ad93
Thanks, can you please backport in KDE Plasma 5.8 LTS branch also?
