Transparent Overlays: Panel names are always visible. Displayed twice when hovering

[maxwxyz]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Problem description

The title names of the panels / docked windows are always visible when using the transparent overlay mode:

When hovering the panels, they are even displayed twice. I'm not sure when this was added or why but a few weeks ago there were no default titles displayed as seen in a screenshot from #11794

This seems to have coincided with the following change:

@LemonBoy can you confirm? Previously the panel titles were not shown when transparency was enabled, and that how it should be IMO. Now they are always shown and even twice when hovering.
Also the close / dock buttons should not be shown as previously, only when hovering:

+1 I can reproduce.

• Now we have 2 bars.
• I agree the situation was better before. I do not see value of having the title bars displayed all the time. It was better when it shows only on hover.
• The new bar looks better imo. But it lacks the settings button. It also lacks the resize handle.

Btw it would be better to remove the eye icon and the overlay icon and put these options in the 'settings' button.

Tried with weekly 36228, only the one bar when you hover.
Tried with weekly 36277 (released 6th March), we have the situation above, ie. 2 bars.

As an aside , I cannot find lemonboy in the member list. However there is a lemonbug, (pretty close on the keyboard) so maybe the WIP Wednesday screenshot above has a typo on the user name.

@ayushgupta9906 any news on this?
@LemonBoy could you weigh in, was it introduced with your commit?

I just build the latest on Windows 10 had similar issue added a gif where it is visible here:
#12573 (which is probably related since it is also overlay UI stuff.)

[maxwxyz]

@kadet1090 could you support here?

[maxwxyz]

is #12530 to blame?

[MisterMakerNL]

Double title seems to go away when you undock the widget, so maybe it has to do with:
OverlayManager::onDockVisibleChange
Or maybe it can be fixed with that function?

[kadet1090]

@kadet1090 could you support here?

I'll look into that this week hopefully

[maxwxyz]

@kadet1090 do you need help with testing or anything else I could support?

[kadet1090]

I fixed it in #13838, but only the issue with double header. Any remodeling of the header will need to be done in #11998 as current implementation is tape over tape...

[maxwxyz]

nice, thanks!

[MisterMakerNL]

Finally the double header it's gone! Tnxs!!!

[MisterMakerNL]

Well it is fixed a bit sometimes :)
Needs some work!
