Bug ID: 489703
Summary: Left Panel reserves space preventing top panel filling
full screen width.
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.1.2
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Panel

Top panel offset due to left panel space reservation.
SUMMARY
Having a panel on the left and top sides of the screen causes the left panel to
reserve space preventing the top panel from extending the full width of the
left side of the screen. As a side effect the top panel is also pushed out into
the space of the the right hand monitor.
Using custom control only allows removing the overhang onto the second monitor
it is still not possible to make the top panel fill the left hand space
reserved by the left panel.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a left hand panel to the desktop.
2. Add a top panel to the desktop.
3. Have top panel fill width
4. Have left panel set to any width/height.
OBSERVED RESULT
Left panel incorrectly reserves space preventing other panels from using that
space.
EXPECTED RESULT
Prior to 6.1.1 panels could overlap allowing any configuration of panels.
Ideally the panels should only reserve their active space, so by using custom
and making the panel be smaller than the full width/height this should allow
other panels to fill the space.
