Comment 2 for bug 821180

Hi Marcus, thanks for reporting this bug. However, no matter how many things I tried, I couldn't reproduce it. Could you please give me some hints? For instance, what applications are opened when you reproduce it, and also how often it happens to you.

From a look at the source code of the panel, I see that it only monitors the active window; and indeed, I could create some weird situation when the panel is *not* shown when it should (for instance, if you kill the application crossing the panel's area from a terminal), but that's quite a different issue.

And do you really need to log out, or switching worspace does also help?
