3.0.1 on KDE Plasma: Tray window appears below autohiding systray instead of beneath it

[martin21]

Forked off from GitHub issue #2355.

I use the auto hiding feature of the systray of the Plasma desktop. And what happens is that the Nextclient client supposed to be tray window appears under the systray, not beneath it:

It also clearly does not look like any regular systray window under KDE Plasma, messing up the lock and feel of the desktop.

For me that is a major usability regression. I see the intention that you tried to make things better, the the result, at least here, clearly is worse. For now I use the context menu to open the settings window, which brings back the old client window.

Client configuration

Client version: 3.0.1

Operating system: Debian Unstable

OS language: German

Qt version used by client package (Linux only, see also Settings dialog): 5.14.2

Client package (From Nextcloud or distro) (Linux only): distro

Installation path of client: /usr/bin/nextcloud

Logs

1. Client logfile:

Nope! Contains sensitive data like which Nextcloud instances I use and which local folders they are synced to. If you need something from the log, please say which part do you need. I tried to skim through the log, but with debug log level it is very much.

I am not sure whether the log would even matter for this kind of bug. Please reconsider this as hard requirement, cause it requiring sharing sensitive data does not match the kind of privacy approach I know and expect from Nextcloud. Thanks.

It is still occuring. Plasma 5.23.5 on X11. I use an autohiding panel at the side of the main screen. When I click on Nextcloud icon in systray its window appears under the panel. nextcloud-desktop 3.3.5. Still I can not move it around to a different position like a regular window. Thanks, -- Martin
