xfce4-panel won't unhide

[Patrick Wiseman]

Hello, all:

My panel's stuck in 'hide' mode and won't unhide.  This is not the first
time this has happened, but I can't see what I did, other than wake up the
machine from a locked screen (xscreensaver).

Is this a known bug?  It takes a restart of X to correct.  Why is there no
longer an option from a desktop menu to restart everything without leaving
X?  That used to be a standard feature of wm's.
