Description Mike 2008-01-31 14:47:14 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

I am using the netgraph applet from kde-look ( http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/plasma-netgraph?content=74071 ), it uses a Plasma::Dialog to show the speed on a mouse click but the dialog always appears on the left screen when the plasmoid is on the right.

The code in the plasmoid seems fairly standard so I do not think it is a bug there

...
dial_pl->show();
dial_pl->position(event,
                  boundingRect(),
                  mapToScene(boundingRect().topLeft()));

the bug is in the applet. it should be doing:

dial_pl->move(setPosition(dial_pl.size());

this plasmoid is not in svn, and as such is not ours to fix. let the author know though ... in fact, let the author know they could host their applet in kde's svn if they wanted =)
