Created attachment 156729 [details] A slightly modified patch for this problem
I've made a slightly modified patch with the following features. Maybe, this works well both for me and Matthias. 1. Panel always appears on the right bottom on showing. 2. The panel won't move by itself while it is shown. 3. When the panel is hidden, the current position of the panel is forgotten again. 4. If 'snapping' is enabled, the panel snaps horizontally after drag finishes. This is the best for the current release; There should be another option like "Remember the panel location" in 1.6 branch.
Peng Huang, probably we should update the patch for F9 at least. It can be backported to F8 and F7 later if necessary.
Hi Jens, I can not reproduce this problem in rawhide. Could re check it?
Agreed - looks fixed to me too.
