Description Dan Winship 2003-03-31 17:02:36 UTC 
If you pop up a menu of any sort on an autohide panel, and then move
the cursor out of the panel, then the panel won't autohide when the
menu goes away.

Eg, move to the panel, right-click to get the panel menu or an applet
context menu, move out of the panel area, and click to make the menu
go away. The panel doesn't hide.

Or, if you have the window list in an autohide panel, with grouping
turned on (like I do), then basically any time you select a window,
the panel won't re-hide properly afterward. (This worked in 1.4.)

should be working in head, not sure if the 2.2 solution would be the
same as different things were going on there.
Comment 2 Vincent Untz 2003-09-04 18:10:19 UTC 
It seems unlikely there will be another 2.2.x release, so I'll just
close this bug.
Comment 3 Dan Winship 2005-04-05 18:46:23 UTC 
This was working for a long time, but now it's broken again in 2.10.
(actually, it still seems to be working for the panel context menu itself,
but it's broken for applet context menus and the window list grouped-window
popup).
Comment 4 Vincent Untz 2005-04-05 20:35:02 UTC 
I'm not sure this was ever fixed...
