            Bug ID: 362910
           Summary: No panel after removing laptop from docking station,
                    two panels after adding one
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: 5.5.5
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Multi-screen support
          Assignee: aleix...@kde.org
          Reporter: b...@tessarakt.de

I am using KDE on Ubuntu 16.04 (plasma-desktop has Version: 4:5.5.5-0ubuntu1).

My machine is a laptop which I am using either in a docking station with two
external screens, or undocked with just the internal screen. I somehow managed
to disable the internal screen when undocked, and this setting seems to get
remembered. Before (on Ubuntu 15.10), I used to have very weird problems when
undocking the laptop -- these seem to be gone now.

But I still have a minor problem: When I undock the laptop, all windows are
shown on the internal screen. So far, so good. But unfortunately, no panel is
shown. I usually solve this by minimizing all windows so that the desktop is
shown, then right-clicking and choosing New Panel > Default. However, I then
have _two_ panels, on at the bottom and one at the top of the screen. I can
then right-click on the one I don't want and remove it, and afterwards
everything is fine. Still, this is a wee bit annoying ...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Laptop is in docking station, with two external screens.
2. Remove laptop from docking station, open lid.

3. Minimize windows so that desktop is visible.
4. Right-click, add default panel

Actual Results:  
After step 2: No panel is visible.

After step 4: Two panels are visible (at the top and at the bottom)

Expected Results:  
After step 2: One panel should be visible.

After step 4: Only one panel should be added, not two.
