But it’s actually not fine either: if I were to keep adding icons there past what’s in the video, after a certain point, the space that it leaves between the icons and the next widget to the right would keep increasing as icons are added, shrinking them unnecessarily, although more progressively and would make the icons overlap with each other past a certain point, which does not happen when it shrinks icons after a widget widens. I do not think it has to do with the media player widget taking more space than it appears, because you’ll also see that there’s a volume control widget right next to it, and that’s what the task manager borders (that’s the KDE built-in widget, and doesn’t use extra space). The media player widget also uses the same space and ends up at the same absolute position regardless of whether it widens before or after the task manager is full enough that it shrinks icons, but the end result is different (for the task manager) depending on what happens first. The issue would also happen if it were the built-in system tray that would widen instead. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
