(Get the code!)
I experience the unwanted top panel when using LibreOffice Impress with an external projector for the audience view.
It would be helpful to be able to remove the top panel from a secondary monitor, in a similar manner to the way one can now specify that the launcher doesn't appear on a given monitor. This would give a cleaner screen before and after presentations.
When the presentation runs, the presenter view (console) shows on the laptop and the audience sees just the current slide on screen. However, I find that although the slide expands to full screen, the shadow of the now invisible top panel is superimposed on the slide. This is clearly a problem.
If I click within the external display, that shadow disappears from the audience view, and appears on the presenter view. When I click on the presenter view on the laptop screen, the shadow returns to the audience view...
Possibly a separate bug, but would almost certainly be fixed (for the audience view) by implementing this wishlist feature.
