I tried but it doesn't change. It actually looks like an "empty bar". Only placed on the bottom. But it has no removal or other menus. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

dumb question, which is the first/primary taskbar, the vertically aligned icons on the upper right? if so, how did you get it away from the screen edge?
i unlocked widgets, created a second taskbar, put at top of screen, <rt><click> on THAT taskbar, selected "panel options" -> "panel settings", "more settings" and the last menu entry on the popup "remove panel"
see screenshot: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/~paka/Screenshot_20170108_153614.png
but I AM on tw.
The first taskbar is hidden. It has the normal menu entry. No problem. It is this that is placed where I indicate that is anomalous. I have the doubt that it is a bug and that the real screen is on a second screen that is now not visible because only available in two screen mode.

I have a second screen, 50 inch 4k tv, and the "primary" taskbar displays correctly (imo) on both.

New users are O.K. but what you say makes sense. With me, when using a secondary screen it might be that I created a empty taksbar at the time and now for some reasons it becomes visible. I will try to put the machine on a dockingstation and to lite on a second monitor. So maybe I find a way to get rid of it. I think it could be that it gets visible because I migrated to 42.2 and back to 42.1 due to the current Kmail / Akonadi problems. Maybe therefore, what was seen at the time as secondary monitor now is seen as primary or vice versa.

If all else fails, you can nuke ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc and log out and in again.

No this is really curious and interesting. Today I wanted to look after the second monitor issue. But the bar was gone! Now I thought: good, things that go away without problems .... But... Now it is in another user desktop!!! Outstanding. A useraccount migrating bar? How is that? I think I am going to ask this question to KDE directly because something that transcends the division of userlands is for me worrisome. Or is this an artefact of lightdm or the graphicsdriver and because I am not using sddm any more? I doubt it. Transcendence with Plasma.

OK, I solved the problem of the dead bar. And it goes like this: Unblock the objects. Shift the real taskbar to another Screen border (i.e. above). Below you will be left now with the strange "blind bar". Now ctrl-alt-esc for killing a program. You put the cursor well upon the famous weird "blind bar". You kill. The whole desktop comes down and you are left with black screen and a pointer. Press ctrl-alt-del and the logout dialogue appears. Log out. Log in again. The bar is gone. Now put the bar again in his position. Lock the objects. Now that has to be done to any preexisting user account one by one. On every one you will have this problem and on every one this method works. So I have my desktop back. Wonder what this thing actually was. And thank you to everybody for the suggestions. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
