I can reproduce the "no menu on empty taskbar", but otherwise, things
are OK.

Do you use the default config options?

Hi,

I missed this basic step, sorry.

After commenting out all entries in preferences file and then
uncommenting entry by entry, turns out that critical is AutoHideDelay=0.

Minimal preferences file to reproduce at my Debian sid:

###
TaskBarAutoHide=1
AutoHideDelay=0
###

Taskbar disapperars "on click" not "zero units of time after the mouse
goes out from it". Is this intended behaviour?

Practical workaround is set the delay to 1.

Regards
Tomasz

Right-click context menu on taskbar is accessible only on narrow space
between window space and icon tray.

I cannot reproduce the original problem either. With

TaskBarAutoHide=1
AutoHideDelay=0

it behaves as expected if you don't click.

However I see another issue with quite opposite symptoms: sometimes if I
click on the task bar it does not hide. However, after doing some other
actions with the taskbar it starts working again. I still haven't
figured out what exactly is needed to reproduce it.

Regards,
Eduard.

Hello,

in version 1.3.6-1 I cannot reproduce hiding taskbar. Right-click on
free taskbar space gives expected menu.

Now I see another strange behaviour: taskbar hides only if
touches/covers any window and mouse pointer leave it in the area of
touching/covering. See video recording on
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDC91BF9LiU (on that channel, I put also
video related to bug #564296 -
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=564296).

Regards
Tomasz

This is out of date, I merged by mistake mail draft from yesterday with
current. Maybe yesterday I worked with windows touching the taskbar.
Current behaviour is illustrated by videos. I'm sorry for confussion.
