I have the same problem, and it occurs very frequently on Alt+Tab keys pressed. In my case, the panel becomes invisible (transparent), on right click I see the panel context menu, but the panel still be invisible.

Code: Select all

mate-panel --reset

solves this problem, but it resets all the panel settings...

Is there any solution?

Hi,

I had often "panel missing" problems with Mate 1.24 (in Linux Mint up to 20.2), less with Mate 1.26 (in Linux Mint 20.3).

I use the following script to relaunch Mate panel:

Code: Select all

gsettings reset-recursively org.mate.panel

I save this script in a file I named "Reset_Mate_Panel.sh" and this file is on my desktop.

Initially I used Marco + Compton as the windows manager, I use now Metaicity + composition, and it seems that Mate panel crash is less frequent (this can be adjusted in control center / deskotp parameters / windows).

Note that mate-panel package has further been corrected on github https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-panel, its revision is now 1.27, while mate-desktop is still in 1.26 revision; but mate-panel has not been updated on Linux Mint.
