            Bug ID: 405897
           Summary: There is a gap between the bottom task bar and the
                    K-menu, making menu unusable if a window is behind it
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.12.7
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Panel
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: k...@kde.lka.org.lu
  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY

There is a gap between the bottom panel and the K-menu, making the menu
unusable if a window is behind that gap. Indeed, in that case, after opening
the menu by klicking on the K (or the "3 dots and arrow" icon), the menu closes
when attempting to move the mouse into it, because the mouse has to cross that
gap, and by doing so, it touches the window behind it. Problem does not happen
when moving mouse very quickly (but sometimes you need to move it *really*
quick, so this is not an option...)


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a window (for example a konsole), and position it at the bottom left
corner of the screen, partially behind the bottom task bar
2. Click on the "K" icon
3. Slowly move the mouse into the newly opened "K" menu.

OBSERVED RESULT

The K menu closes, because of the small gap between the bottom panel and the K
menu. The mouse has to cross that gap to go into the K menu, and by doing so,
it will touch the window behind it, closing the K menu before it can be used.

EXPECTED RESULT
K menu should be displayed with its lower border flush with the K icon's upper
border, so that it is possible to move the mouse from the icon to the menu
without crossing any other window.
