In this state, everything works as expected and clicking on the pidgin notification area icon makes the buddy list disappear and reappear if repeated. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

In this case, clicking on the pidgin notification area icon doesn't make the buddy list disappear. Clicking on the close button on top right makes it disappear and then clicking on the notification area icon makes it appear again but it never makes it disappear. This happens whenever always-on-top windows is fully or partially over the buddy list regardless which program's window it is. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The bug can be reproduced by simply putting any window partially on top of the Buddy List, and then clicking on Pidgin's tray icon --- the buddy list won't do anything in that case. This happens in pidgin/pidgin/gtkblist.c:pidgin_blist+_toggle_visibility(), which uses the visibility events from GdkWindow to test whether the buddy list if fully/partially/not obscured. Last time I looked, GDK didn't monitor and propagate visibility events correctly. First we need to see if this is actually what is going on. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

When the buddy list is obscured by always-on-top window, it tries to do the same thing except that it can't bring the buddy list on top of the obscuring window, so the buddy list ends up between all non-always-on-top windows and the always on top window and clicking on the buddy icon becomes no-op, so what needs to be done is for the buddy list to try to bring itself to the top and if the operation doesn't reveal any more region of the window, it should close. Dunno how easy that would be to implement tho.
