Kubuntu 15.04, intellihide (windows can cover) function is broken

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

I'm not sure what this intellihide function is, but since it seems to be about how windows interact with each other, I can confidently say it's not something in ubiquity -- reassigning to plasmashell.

The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/KDE. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Hello Mathieu

Thanks for replying. Using the link you gave me (https://bugs.kde.org/) I
found a bug that better describes what I wanted to say. It's # 343448
<https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343448>.

Doing some research online, I'm not sure whether this is really a bug or
whether it's intentional. Intellihide is the word used in Unity for
'Windows can cover' and means:

1- I choose 'window can cover' option for a panel
2- the panel is visible when no window is showed
3- When I maximise a window or drag it over the panel, the panel is covered
4- When I drag the mouse towards the proximity of the panel, this is
revealed, exactly in the same way as with auto-hide option

1,2,3 work. 4 does not. This works correctly in KDE 4.

Many thanks

Federico

I fixed it for Plasma 5.5
