SUMMARY I have a primary monitor on my left and a secondary monitor on the right. If I create a Plasma panel on the right side of the primary screen and set it to "Dodge windows", it will never dodge windows and will always be shown. If I move that same panel to the left side of the primary screen, or the bottom of the screen, that panel will dodge windows. It's only when the panel is on the right side of the primary screen next to the secondary screen does it not dodge windows. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add a screen to the right of your primary screen 2. Add a default panel 3. Set it to dodge windows 4. Set the position to the bottom, watch it dodge windows 5. Set the position to the right, watch it always remain present and not dodge windows OBSERVED RESULT The panel on the rightmost side of the leftmost screen does not dodge windows. EXPECTED RESULT Panels should dodge windows when set to 'Dodge windows" SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Kernel Version: 6.7.9 Graphics Platform: Wayland
Can confirm. If the 2nd monitor is on the same side as panel the dodge window doesn't work Operating System: EndeavourOS KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0 Kernel Version: 6.8.1-arch1-1.1-g14 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 6800HS with Radeon Graphics Memory: 14.9 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon Graphics Manufacturer: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC.

Can also confirm but for me it is with a monitor under my main one. I have my panel below on my main monitor and it isn't dodging if my third monitor is set to be under my main one.

+1, ran into this while trying to have a side panel on the same side as my second screen, dodge windows works perfectly on any other side that isn't on the same side as my second screen.

I can confirm this. My monitor arrangement is H shaped (three monitors in one row, two side ones are vertical and the middle one is horizontal). The middle monitor is primary. I created a panel on the left-side of the primary monitor and neither auto-hide nor dodging work for this panel.

Commenting to confirm this happens for me as well. KDE 6.0.5 Frameworks 6.2.0 Qt 6.7.0 X11
Seems to be fixed for me in Plasma 6.1 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.1 Graphics Platform: Wayland
Tested it on KDE 6.1 and it indeed seems to work fine under Wayland. Under X11, however, it still does not work as expected.
I can confirm that I no longer have this problem with KDE 6.1.
