Description Patrick Silva 2021-05-16 18:34:29 UTC 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. have a horizontal panel on bottom
2. remove Plasma panel (we see a notification with 'Undo" button)
3. restore Plasma panel by clicking on "Undo" button of notification

OBSERVED RESULT
Plasma panel appears on top of the screen.
Restart Plasma with "plasmashell --replace" and now panel is positioned
on bottom as expected.

Cannot reproduce.

Weird. I have reproduced again right now.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2021-05-19 02:01:42 UTC 
Maybe it's a Wayland thing. I tested on X11. Will try Wayland soon.
Comment 4 Patrick Silva 2021-05-19 10:35:39 UTC 
You are right. I can reproduce only on Wayland.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2021-05-20 18:41:00 UTC 
Can reproduce. I use a vertical panel and when I restore it, it appears horizontally centered, right in the middle of the screen!

I cannot reproduce this in Plasma 6. Can you, Patrick? Or even, in 5.27?
Comment 10 Patrick Silva 2023-09-18 20:25:17 UTC 
Can reproduce with Plasma 5.27.8, cannot with Plasma 6.
Comment 11 Nate Graham 2023-09-18 20:43:21 UTC 
Ok great, let's say it's been fixed in Plasma 6, then! Thanks for testing again!
