Panel is stuck #9251

Issue

Cinnamon panel gets stuck and is not being hidden again. Even if I go to the panel settings and turn OFF & ON again the "Auto-hide panel" mode, it doesn't help: the panel remains visible, only the windows' size change. After Cinnamon restart it restores normal behaviour.

Steps to reproduce

Turn ON "Intelligently hide panel". Sometimes it happens when I work in the Android Studio.

Expected behaviour

Panel should be hidden if I have any maximized windows and my cursor is outside the panel's area.

icarter09 commented 4 years ago

@dkuteynikov are there any other steps involved to try to trigger the issue beyond just turning on "Intelligently hide panel"?

dkuteynikov commented 4 years ago

Unfortunately, I don't have exact steps, it happens randomly, but maybe the system overload may affect this, because it usually happens when my PC is running out of memory & CPU resources. But I cannot guarantee this.

icarter09 commented 4 years ago

@dkuteynikov no worries. I'm going to keep "Intelligently hide panel" enabled and see if I run into the issue as well.

dkuteynikov commented 4 years ago

Thank you! By the way, another idea came into my mind: that issue could be related we the full-screen mode, because I often use it in Firefox, Viber, Telegram, Android Studio, ...

dkuteynikov commented 4 years ago

I think I have found the exact scenario: I noticed that it most often happens when I close an app by middle-clicking on it's icon in the task bar.

Try this scenario:

  1. Open Text Editor, it's window should be maximized
  2. Open Firefox, it's window should be maximized
  3. Close Text Editor by middle-clicking on it's task bar icon
  4. Bingo! The panel is stuck now.

P.S.

Pentarctagon commented 4 years ago

I have also encountered this issue. The way I found to reproduce it:

I'm using a fully updated Mint 20.

rogeriodomingos commented 4 years ago

I can also reproduce this issue using the steps @Pentarctagon has stated. It happens with many application like Xed, Calculator, Rythmbox, etc. Two exceptions that I've noticed are Terminal and Files. This isn't the only scenario where this issue has happened with me however, sometimes it appears to happen randomly. I am on Mint 19.3.

rbb8403 commented 4 years ago

I am also having this issue. I thought it was random until I noticed that it happened when I middle-clicked to close Discord. In general, middle clicking an icon in the panel to close the associated window keeps the panel visible in auto-hide mode, obstructing the screen. A few things to note:

  1. This bug happens when the panel is set to auto-hide mode as well, not just intelligently hide.
  2. It doesn't occur when I middle click to close a pinned program.
  3. Despite being visible, the panel still behaves as if it was hidden - it takes a second to respond, as if it has to pop up from its hidden state.
  4. The panel covers content, rather than shrinking the available workspace.
  5. The issue persists until I restart Cinnamon - either by logging out and logging back in, or restarting it with the troubleshooting option.

I am using Mint 20 with Cinnamon 4.6.6. I experienced this bug while using Mint 19.3, before I upgraded. However, my laptop is still using Mint 18.2 with Cinnamon 3.4.6, and it doesn't have this bug.

I am still able to reproduce the issue with the same steps, also on the same Mint and Cinnamon versions.

carlosepcc commented 2 years ago

Same issue. My panels got stucked forever. I thought it was some theme or applet messing all up like my extensions did in gnome. I don't know what to do to make auto-hide working again. I set up two panels, on at the top with information and settings applets and the default at the bottom without the applets I put in the top panel.

cassepipe commented 2 years ago

Same issue again. I can't find a specific set of sets that may be the cause though.

Also I am pretty sure it also happens in Auto hide panel

pcspecialist commented 2 years ago

Same problem with LMDE 5 (Cinnamon 5.2.7)

cassepipe commented 1 year ago

It happened again but it got worse. This time even double clicking on the "Show Desktop" icon does not do anything. It would be nice to have some info on where to start to investigate. Any way of learning what/which window is keeping the panel on would be welcome.

I believe it has happened to me recently on Gnome. Any chance this is due to an upstream issue with Mutter/Muffin ?

I am also facing the same issue, panel will become non responsive with cinnamon desktop. Panel work fine with always show option. Bug occur with "auto hiding" and "intelligently hiding" options.

Now it got better for me with the last update. It happens way less and simply hoverning in and out of the bar will have it hide. Better than to have to click twice on the Show Desktop button
