Created attachment 122297 [details] Right-clicke where the mouse is, left click isn't passed also SUMMARY Latte e.g. in Dodge Active mode and with parabolic effect activated grabs clicks and mouse actions on the area "above" (i.e. the area that would be occupied by the enlarged icons, even if there's nothing there yet because the dock is resting at the bottom). This is more problematic in my usecase: I usually like to resize some windows (e.g. IM apps) to not cover the dock, so the dock is always shown on this desktop, but suddenly I can't interact with the bottom of the window, even if the dock doesn't seem to be there, but an "invisible" part of it is. Right clicking on this area even brings the Latte Dock menu, as shown in the attached screenshot. This "invisible" area seems to coincide with the blue-background area shown when Latte settings dialog is open. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Almost standard layout, parabolic effect, 48-64px 2. Try to click the window below the area of the parabolic effect, even if the effect is not activated OBSERVED RESULT There's an "invisible" part of the dock on this area which doesn't allow to click/right click on the window below, even if in they aren't overlapping yet (would do only when parabolic effect is activated) EXPECTED RESULT If the effect is not activated, the dock area is contained in the area delimited by its background/icons, and windows which doesn't overlap with resting-delimited dock area receive the clicks, not the resting dock.

Yes that is intentional and there is no other way to have always perfect centered plasma applets. If you set the panel background to 100% you will see exactly which area is used. If you want to reduce that effect only thing you can do is to reduce your thickness margins to minimum from Appearance page
Uh, I think you may have misunderstood the issue. My panel IS set to 100%, and still ~26px OUT of the full background I can't click the window below. Attached is the screenshot with the settings open. This bluish outer background is the area I can't click on a window below, even if the parabolic effect isn't activated. Notice it's way LARGER than the dark, 100%-sized background, and make inaccessible a bigger area which SHOULD be clickable if I'm using dodge active window mode. I'm also attaching a video of it, in which I can't click the icon slider when it's close though not overlapping the Dock. Please, reopen if it's relevant.

1. If you restart Latte does this occur? 2. Please run Latte with, latte-dock -d --with-window and make a video demonstrating again when this occurs, the debug window will give some more info 3. Send also you layout in order to try to reproduce in my system and it would be good to know how you reproduce it
Hmm, problem is gone upon Latte restart. I'm running with the command you passed, will try to trigger the bug and report back the logs.

Can't reproduce. Restart as workaround should be enough for something happening rarely. Thank you for the attention.
