STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. right-click on Plasma panel and choose 'Enter edit mode' 2. move Plasma panel from bottom to top 3. OBSERVED RESULT we cannot leave the edit mode completely with just one click because the edit mode toolbar is hidden behind Plasma panel. To leave the edit mode completely, firstly we need to close the panel settings and then close the edit mode toolbar. EXPECTED RESULT edit mode toolbar should be visible after the provided steps, so we can leave the edit mode completely by closing it SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.100.0 Qt Version: 5.15.6 Graphics Platform: Wayland
Sorry, I meant: OBSERVED RESULT we cannot leave the edit mode completely with just one click because the edit mode toolbar is hidden behind Plasma panel settings.
Don't have a very good idea to fix it without making panel and desktop code much more complex :(
Partially fixed in Plasma 6; now only _some_ of the toolbar is hidden by the new panel configuration dialog.

on p6 the close button sticks out... we could go yolo and just add some fixed extra margins on the panel settings window. (note that is still possible to block it completely because with custom it will still show the ruler)
In Plasma 5.91.0, setting the top panel to "Auto hide" completely hides the edit mode toolbar under the panel as well.

Git commit f34c2e3c69d33cc873dd7fef56b1b6c25c0c0eae by Nate Graham, on behalf of Niccolò Venerandi. Committed on 05/03/2024 at 16:54. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Do not include the panel configuration window in the available screen region Depends on https://invent.kde.org/plasma/libplasma/-/merge_requests/1069 This way a top panel does not overlap with the global Edit Mode toolbar anymore. Instead, the toolbar will move to the bottom of the screen, where there's space for it.
