[Bug 1390157] Re: Panel is not clickable when it is placed at the bottom

 

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
  I reported this problem recently, closed that bug because I thought the
  problem was solved, but unfortunately the problem is still there.
  
  I removed the bottom panel from the desktop, and added all applets I need to the top panel. Then I moved the top panel to the bottom using the Properties dialog. This worked until I rebooted.
  After rebooting, right-clicking on the bottom panel gives the context menu you'd normally get when you right-click on the desktop. Right-clicking near the top edge of the screen, however, gives the context menus you'd normally get when you right-click on a panel.
  So it seems that the panel is only moved visually.
  
  UPDATE:
  This only happens when using Compiz. Work-around: add 'mate-panel --replace' to the Startup Applications.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ 1) In mate desktop enable compiz as window manager
+ 2) Right-clicking on the bottom panel gives the context menu you'd normally get when you
+    right-click on the desktop.
+ 3) Right-clicking near the top edge of the screen, the panel menu should not be shown
+ 
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ 
+ Clicks take care of the struts (panels) around and have a wrong offset
