Description Jonas P 2008-06-29 20:03:35 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

When using a top or left panel the resizing process is problematic.
This is due to the black-gray gradient of the configuration dialog which goes from top to bottom (or left to right) and the black colour of the default theme.

Reproduce (for a top panel):
Just open the panel configuration dialog and try to make the panel a tiny bit smaller (a few pixels are enough to see the problem).
The panel configuration dialog then blends into the panel itself and one cannot see how big the panel is going to be after finishing the resize process.

Thanks for the nice KDE4 experience and keep up the good work.

A screenshot of the configuration dialog blending into the panel. The real
panel starts just above the end of the black-gray gradient.

the panel resizing wors as is because a performance issue that didn't let resize the panel real time.
hopefully it will be resize-as-you-drag again in 4.2
