when windows are fullscreen and popups or menus are activated. Intended behavior: Single monitor setups: Panels are hidden only when a given fullscreen window for a given monitor actually is the toplevel window for that monitor. If a popup is activate (like the Cinnamon menu via shortcut,) the panels will show while that modal is active. This prevents a weird disembodied menu popping out of nowhere. Further, if a non- fullscreen window is alt-tabbed to, or otherwise made the focus, the panels will also return until the fullscreen window is re-focused. Multi-monitor setups: Same as single monitor, except for modal actor behavior is different - only the panel(s) on the monitor which currently hosts the last-added/current modal actor are shown. This allows, for instance, the alt-tab popup or menu to be used on your 'work' monitor without disrupting the view of your 'movie/tv-show' monitor. Requires muffin patch as well: linuxmint/muffin#317

when windows are fullscreen and popups or menus are activated.
Intended behavior:
Single monitor setups: Panels are hidden only when a given fullscreen
window for a given monitor actually is the toplevel window for that
monitor. If a popup is activate (like the Cinnamon menu via shortcut,)
the panels will show while that modal is active. This prevents a
weird disembodied menu popping out of nowhere. Further, if a non-
fullscreen window is alt-tabbed to, or otherwise made the focus, the
panels will also return until the fullscreen window is re-focused.
Multi-monitor setups: Same as single monitor, except for modal actor
behavior is different - only the panel(s) on the monitor which currently
hosts the last-added/current modal actor are shown. This allows, for
instance, the alt-tab popup or menu to be used on your 'work' monitor
without disrupting the view of your 'movie/tv-show' monitor.
