Answered: "hanging" by resting on the bump

[Oliver_W]

I wasn’t the one who noticed this, but it was pointed out here that if a robot is resting on the bump and touching its hanging bar it counts as low hanging.

Low Hanging – A Robot is considered to be Low Hanging if it is touching the Hanging Bar of its own color
and not touching any foam field tile.

This question is just to check that this is indeed how matches should be scored:

If a robot is resting on the bump and touching the hanging bar of its alliance, and is not touching any foam tiles, should it be considered low hanging?

And a related question:

If a robot is resting on the field perimeter (but not grasping or grappling it as covered by <SG9>) and touching the hanging bar of its alliance, and is not touching any foam tiles, should it be considered low hanging? Does the answer change depending on whether the robot is partially outside or completely within the outer edge of the field perimeter?

<S2> If a Robot goes completely out-of-bounds (outside the playing field), it will be disabled for the
remainder of the Match.
Note: The intent is NOT to penalize Robots for having mechanisms that inadvertently cross the field
border during normal game play.

The definition of Low Hanging was updated on May 31, I’ve quoted the updated definition below, with the new text in bold.

Low Hanging - A Robot is considered to be Low Hanging if it is touching the Hanging Bar of its own color and not touching any foam field tile or the Bump.

This, the Robot you described would not be considered Low Hanging.

The Robot would be considered Low Hanging. However, any robot that intentionally breaks the plane of the Field Perimeter would undergo extra scrutiny in regards to <S1>.

<S1> If at any time the Robot operation or team actions are deemed unsafe or have damaged the Field Elements or Scoring Objects, by the determination of the referees, the offending team may be Disqualified. The Robot will require re-inspection before it may again take the field.
