Description of problem: When turning VLC Media Player from maximized to fullscreen, panels stay covering it Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.10.1 How reproducible: Well Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch vlc 2. Maximize it 3. Double click the video to fullscreen it Actual results: Panels cover full screen window Expected results: Panels go away, like when fullscreening from normal Additional info: None
From reading the upstream links it sounds like a vlc bug to me. If you do NOT maximize the vlc window before fullscreening it, does it work then?

In Launchpad it got changed to xfce panel. Yes, if I DON'T maximize, then it woprks as expected, as stated in report.
(In reply to Cysioland from comment #2) > In Launchpad it got changed to xfce panel. Sure, but note the arch thread where they talk about sending patches to vlc folks. > Yes, if I DON'T maximize, then it woprks as expected, as stated in report. I don't know if vlc has any way to report bugs, but perhaps that would be the next place to try...
Reported upstream: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/10355
Upstream closed, as it isn't VLC.
Sad. https://mailman.videolan.org/pipermail/vlc-devel/2013-March/092098.html is the patch that was mentioned I think in the arch forum discussion. It's a Xfce person proposing a patch, and as far as I can see it was rejected for some minor issues. ;( I suppose we could file a upstream xfwm4 bug and see what maintainers there say.
Filed against XFWM4.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '20'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.
