panel plugins: GUIs not considered with regards to auto-hide #871
Comments
Confirmed as stated above. Arch Linux i686 or x86_64 with LXQt from latest VCS checkouts. Auto hiding should indeed get disabled when the pointer is hovering over those grouped tasks. |

In the meantime I had a look at some other desktop environments, wondering whether the behaviour eventually has to be considered a feature: The findings depicted in this issue can not be seen in KDE Plasma 5, Cinnamon, Mate and Xfce. In all of these hovering over objects like main menu or ruler of volume control prevents the panel from auto hiding. Only exception I could see was a calendar of Mate's clock applet, pretty similar to the one from plugin-[world-]clock. Considering these findings and this issue's screenshots I'd personally tend to call the behaviour a bug, not a feature. |
@pmattern thanks for reviewing other environments. |
This is a bug regardless of what other environments do :p |
Could you, guys, test if the lxqt/lxqt-panel#275 fixes the behaviour. |
On Arch Linux I have uninstalled the community version of the package lxqt-panel and installed the AUR version lxqt-panel-git. This package uses git+https://github.com/lxde/lxqt-panel.git The package has been compiled and installed. After running I did not see a difference w.r.t. the autohide issue. |

The change is not in master yet. |
In that case, I will test the package once it gets updated in Arch. |
It's now in master... |
I have tested the same way as before and I can confirm that the issue has been resolved. |

See lxqt/lxqt#871 and lxqt/lxqt-panel#275 Package-Manager: portage-2.2.26
lxqt-panel has the option to auto-hide the panel. The auto hide works.
However, when tasks are grouped together and the mouse is hovering above one of the grouped tasks, the panel disappears after one second, making it very hard to click on it.
The suggestion is to temporary disable autohide, when the mouse is hovering one of the grouped tasks.
