unable to adjust kde panel after screen rotate

[Bernie Bernstein]

After rotating a screen from the Display configuration control module, any KDE panels present on the rotated screen can no longer be adjusted or moved.

After the screen is rotated, any attempts to open up the panel tool box fails. The panel tool box appears to flicker for an instant, but is immediately closed. It is impossible to adjust any settings from the panel tool box, including the panel height or screen edge.

This issue appears to occur only to panels already existing on the rotated screen and limited only to the screen that undergone rotation. Any panel present on a screen that did not undergo rotation appears to be unaffected. Also, any panel created after the screen was rotated appears to be unaffected by this issue.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a kde panel on the screen to be rotated (if one does not already exist).
2. Rotate screen via the Display Configuration control module.
3. Unlock widgets.
4. Attempt to open panel tool box on panel in rotated screen.

I have tested this with both Kubuntu 14.04 and Kubuntu 14.10 (Plasma 4 version). Both releases appear to be affected by this.
