If Dolphin needs to present the user with a dialog that contains a long
path, the dialog is stretched out farther than either side of the
display, making it impossible to make choice unless the dialog is moved.

Here's an image of how this usability issue might look like:

Sorry, I didn't know that was preferred. Will do from now on. Thanks for
pointing out and uploading :)

Thanks for the report. Could you please let me know what you did before
the dialog appeared? Did you drag & drop a file to a location with no
write access?

Usually Dolphin shows all error messages as part of the statusbar and I
need to know how to reproduce the issue to fix it.

I had an audio CD in the drive. While exploring it I noticed that it had
folders containing FLACs, OGGs, etc. (which is a real gem of a feature
by the way!). I started copying over the FLACs to my hard drive but the
CD must have been damaged. It repeatedly failed on one of the tracks
with that dialog showing up.

Hi,

kdelibs (version 4 and earlier) is no longer maintained since a few
years.

KDE Frameworks 5 or 6 might already have implemented this wish.

If not, please re-open against the matching framework if feasible or
against the application that shows the issue.

We then can still dispatch it to the right Bugzilla product or
component.

Greetings
Christoph Cullmann
