            Bug ID: 489459
           Summary: In Panel Configuration mode of a custom size panel,
                    widget tooltip menus can't be interacted with
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Panel
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY

If a panel is set to custom size, an additional bar appears that allows the
user to change the size of the panel. This bar has an unfortunate interaction
with the tooltip menus that appear when hovering the pointer over a widget
(and/or with the additional blank space). The tooltip appears on the other side
of the bar, and closes when the pointer moves over the bar. As a consequence,
it is not possible to interact with the options in the toolip.

This doesn't happen 100% of the time; it is possible to get to the tooltip if
the movement is smooth and quick, and potentially for other reasons. but often
it seems to fail. Playing with it a bit, I've found it quite easy to trigger.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

>From new profile

1. Right click the panel, "Show Panel Configuration"
2. Set width to custom. The length configuration bar appears now.
3. Hover over a panel widget (e.g. icontask), wait for the popup to appear, and
try to click the "Configure..."

OBSERVED RESULT

The popup (often) closes before the pointer reaches it

EXPECTED RESULT

The user can reach the tooltip with the mouse reliably
