Bug Description

KDE panel is set to autohide (on right edge of screen).

Plugging in a USB device, the tray icon does something reasonable. But when I bring it up and click the "unmount" button, the panel autohides EVEN WHEN THE UNMOUNT FAILED (e.g. open file). There's a warning in the bottom of the USB device box, but it's invisible, presumably because the panel has hidden itself.

There SHOULD be a warning that says "the device could not be unmounted. DO NOT REMOVE IT!" that stays visible (and in fact is prominent) when the unmounting fails.

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
