           Summary: KDE plasma floating panel with fit content setting is
                    not displayed correctly at startup
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: master
          Platform: Arch Linux
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

  Target Milestone: 1.0

SUMMARY
If you have a Floating panel + Fit Content, it might render incorrectly at
start up: it will show as a small panel and you are unable to see all the
panel's content. This happens consistently at every sessions start, and this
problem happens across Plasma versions, from 6.0 to the current's version. 

The weird part is, this doesn't happen if you have a fresh Plasma installation,
so I suspect that this is a caching problem. but in my case, updating the cache
doesn't help. It's always happen after you've used Plasma for a while in every
platform I tested.

I have tested this on two different laptops, and the main one (which I include
in the SOFTWARE/OS VERSION section) also tested with Fedora as well. It shows
the same result's. Note that I reinstalled Plasma on 6.2
 on each ones, and this might be a regression(?) of
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=477317. 

My suspicion is that the panel's frame doesn't update properly until you
triggered any actions that updates the panel's state.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a floating panel. Turn off all "updating" components.
2. Log in, you will see the incorrectly
3. Do any action that can trigger the panel's frame update, like launching an
app. It will show correctly

OBSERVED RESULT
Floating panel + Fit Content setting doesn't render correctly

EXPECTED RESULT
Floating panel + Fit Content setting rendered correctly at start.
