            Bug ID: 442916
           Summary: Window previews are not clickable for apps in bottom
                    rows
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: david.cortes.rivera at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
In the icons-only task manager, if there's enough icons to make them be
arranged into two or more rows, then the window previews that pop up when
hovering the mouse over an icon will not be usable for windows that are not in
the top row.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use the icons-only task manager, and open many windows until the icons span
more than one row.
2. In one of the applications that lies on a row other than the top one, open
many windows so that it would trigger window previews when hovering the mouse
over its icon.
3. Hover the mouse over the icon of the app from point 2, and try to switch
windows using those previews.

OBSERVED RESULT
Impossible to switch windows, because as soon as the mouse cursor moves to the
row of icons directly above (which it has to cross in order to reach the
previews from a row other than the first one), the previews disappear.

EXPECTED RESULT
Should keep the window previews there so that it is possible to click them.
