As long as the window is there it will intercept events.
Whether it shows a panel in return is a different matter.

a fullscreen window can cover more than one screen (@Martin: there's even a netwm \
hint on that for xinerama ;-) What you wanted to check is whether the panel and the \
window intersect.

* panel hides, a window becomes full screen at that point .. does the panel still \
                unhide now?
* window becomes full screen, panel hides (and with the patch no unhide trigger is \
created), window goes out of full screen

in both cases does the panel unhide or not as expected?

the reason i ask is that the unhide trigger is only created when a resize or move \
event happens, deskop reserve struts are changed, the theme changes or \
updatePanelGeometry is called due to screen geometry change or the panel position on \
screen changes. .. and i&#39;d be surprised if those get called when a window goes \
into or exits full screen. So this fix would create a new bug in which the hint hide \
doesn&#39;t show until the panel is unhidden once after a fullscreen window shows.

quick tip: to ensure that mouse movements don&#39;t interfere and to simulate \
&quot;things happening all at once without user interaction&quot; usually i trigger \
full screen with sth like: `sleep 3; qdbus org.kde.konsole-`pidof konsole`  \
/konsole/MainWindow_1/actions/fullscreen` which gives me 3 seconds to hide the panel \
before the action occurs, but without any further user input.

I think what probably needs to happen here is a bit more straightforward -&gt; \
whenever the hide area is triggered (e.g. in the &quot;fancy&quot; case, the mouse \
approaches the trigger area) it should check to see if there is a fullscreen window \
on the same screen and if so .. don&#39;t do anything.

That said, the real solution here will be to move to the single screen edge \
implementation where the fancy show uses the kwin effect that Martin has written (and \
which looks really nice, btw, Martin :)</pre>  </blockquote>

So, the panel works as expected.

There still one bug. 1px-width area still intercepted by panel. If do things this \
