This is a difficult issue. Krunner does not know that there is a panel. KWin on the other side fully trusts KRunner as the Plasmashell setPosition call is used.

Possibilities: KWin raises the KRunner window or KWin repositions the window. Both would require new API. Maybe a semantical setPosition?

This is the same for Yakuake.

It would also be useful for Yakuake with the panel at the bottom of the screen. Now if users sets Yakuake to 100% height, it doesn't cover panel on X11 but on Wayland Yakuake hides under the bottom panel.

Still valid with Plasma 5.12 (running in KDE Neon user edition).

I want just to confirm that as for https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395840, this bug is still present in plasma 5.13.

It is reproducible also with Latte Dock ( so with a latte dock top panel ).
Note that also Yakuake first line is covered by the panel.

Can confirm this on Plasma 5.13.4 and Qt 5.11.1 and KF 5.46.0. Right now this is my main blocker from using Wayland as a daily driver, as I use krunner extensively (got rid of the main menu) and not being able to see what I type makes it unusable for me, so I'd love to see this fixed.

same Problem here with Plasma 5.13.90, Qt 5.11.1 and KDE Framework 5.50.0

Still a problem in Plasma 5.15

Is it not possible just to make the startup location for krunner configurable i.e. centred on screen or bottom?

There is a walkaround to set position (will test that in the evening)

I am not sure that window rules are working yet for Plasma Wayland

Actually you are right. They don't unfortunately...

Yakuake expanded under Wayland with Kickoff panel located at the top of the screen

I can confirm this is still a problem on plasma 5.16.5 with kde framework 5.62.0

Confirming that this is still a problem with Plasma 5.17.0, Frameworks 5.63.0, Qt 5.13.1.

Both KRunner and Yakuake (version 3.0.5+) were tested. My panel is on the top edge of the screen and the "Visibility" is set to "Always visible". (With "Windows can cover" the issue is not present, as expected.)

Seems nobody's gonna fix this old and annoying bug 8(

Plasma KDE 5.17.5
Frameworks KDE: 5.66.0
Qt: 5.12.4

Is there a way to ping developers to have an update on the status of this issue? Because i'm having the same issue as https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395970 as well

Yakuake positions itself correctly on Wayland for me, but KRunner is still overlapped by the panel.

KRunner overlapped by panel, Yakuake not

both krunner and yakuake are still affected on my system.

Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.90
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.66.0
Qt Version: 5.14.0

Yakuake does not position itself correctly on your system either, but it's harder to notice unless you set Yakuake terminal height to 100%.

If you set height to 40%, it uses 40% of the whole screen, instead of 40% of available space between panels.

Set a better position for Krunner in wayland

Summary:
In wayland, QScreen::availableGeometry() returns QScreen::geometry(), we could get a better value from plasmashell

Test Plan: Krunner isn't overlapped by a top panel in all cases

Only KRunner is fixed. Reopenning the bug for Yakuake. (It still doesn't work with Plasma 5.19 and yakuake 19.12.3

Sorry, it looks like there is already a dedicated bug for yakuake
