Description:
Plasma panels doesn't hide when "auto hide" is chosen.

Additional info:
* plasma v5.12.0-1 (fully upgraded as of 11.feb.2018, 10:20 CET)

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select the panel menu (three dashes on the right side)
2. Select "more settings" button on the right
3. Select "Visibility->Auto Hide" and "Visibility->maximize panels"
4. Select again "more settings" button
5. Click on the red "x" on the right to close the panel menu

Results:
1. The vertical height of the panel is vertically cut from the bottom showing a band of whatever is on the back.

Extra steps:
1. Select again the panel menu
2. Select "more settings" button on the right
3. Select "Visibility->Always visible" (you cannot choose "Visibility->maximize panels"!)
4. Select again "more settings" button
5. Click on the red "x" on the right to close the panel menu

Extra Results:
1. The bottom color band remains.
2. The panel is shrunk also horizontally on the right side.

Expected results:

1. The panel to keep its size and to auto hide when loosing the focus and "auto hide" is selected.
2. The ability to always select "maximize panels".
3. The panel to keep its size when "always visible and maximize panels" is selected.

Does this bug still exist? I can't reproduce it.

I would close it.
It doesn't apply to my setup any more. After almost 3 years and several releases ... :-(
