Bug ID: 445767
Summary: Global menu items overlap with the clock on the panel
when the opened app has too many menu options
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.23.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
When opening an app that has too many menu options (Bleachbit in this case),
the global menu overlaps with the clock in the panel, it goes under/above the
clock which mixes the text to where it becomes a jumble mess in that area. See
attached screenshot, please!
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add "global menu" widget and put it in the panel (latte panel in my case)
2. Install Bleachbit (or any app that has too many menu options)
3. Make sure you have something visible in the center of the panel (like the
clock widget or something)
OBSERVED RESULT
Global menu options for Bleachbit are overlapped with the clock. It is not that
clear if the menu options go above or under the clock, but it is all jumbled up
EXPECTED RESULT
I think that the system/panel/or the global menu should detect that an app has
too many options, and that there is another widget in the way, then wrap the
rest of the options under a drop-down menu with a little arrow to indicate that
there are more options for this menu. I think that this would be ideal for
situations like this.
