Recording of problem

Steps to reproduce:

1. Attempt to drag the desktop toolbox (I think this is the thing that says "default" on it?) to a corner of the desktop. It will jump around strangely as shown in the attachment.
Comment 1 Alexander Mentyu 2017-12-09 12:48:11 UTC
Can't reproduce it in:

Distribution: KDE neon Developer Edition - Stable Branches
Plasma: 5.11.4
Frameworks: 5.41.0
Qt: 5.9.3
Kernel 4.10.0-40-generic

Tried on all four corners.
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2017-12-15 22:27:57 UTC
Me neither. By the look of it, you're using a non-standard theme. It's possible that's causing the issue.

Recording with Breeze theme

This is still a problem, and has nothing to do with the desktop theme or hardware because this is on a different system with the default breeze theme (the other one was Oxygen, which is NOT non-standard; it's included with Plasma.)
Comment 4 Nate Graham 2017-12-15 22:47:32 UTC
Are you still able to reproduce this with 5.11.4, or only with an older version? If so, can you try with 5.11.4?
Comment 5 Matthew Trescott 2017-12-15 23:15:57 UTC
Sorry, I forgot to mention the version. This is with 5.11.4.
Comment 6 Alexander Mentyu 2018-01-26 18:02:46 UTC
Can reproduce this bug in:

Plasma: 5.11.5
Apps: 17.12.1
Qt: 5.10.0
Frameworks: 5.42.0
Kernel: 4.14.14-1-MANJARO

Also very often the toolbox after jumping around hides in the bottom right corner below the panel, tried in 'Breeze Dark' theme with various bottom panel heights

Can also reproduce with the top screen edge (on a multi-screen setup, which might matter?); the toolbox jumps horizontally.
Comment 10 J.Novo 2019-06-15 23:23:46 UTC
This is happening to me too. Mostly when placed just above the panel but sometimes (varies with the theme though) at top left corner.

This bug has been fixed with a rewrite in Plasma 5.18 that has removed the Desktop Toolbox in its current form.
