Description Ritesh Raj Sarraf 2009-02-11 13:32:03 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

When I add rssnow plasmoid to the panel, I can't read the news because the font rendering is bad.

The attached screenshot should be able to explain the details.

Hi, Do you ACK this as a problem?

Currently, both the widgets are in kdebase-plasma and are unusable.

This bug still exists in 4.3.60, I'm not sure why it's closed invalid.

Using the rssnow applet in the panel is not possible for two reasons:

- the font is too small, smallestReadableFont is not respected
- the logo is painted over the news feed, making it hard to read
Comment 4 Sebastian Kügler 2009-07-31 00:32:00 UTC 
SVN commit 1004799 by sebas:

Use the smallestReadableFont instead of some hand-rolled size

- Dont display the logo in the panel when there's not enough space
- Also save the feedList after a feed has been dropped. In this case, it's
  OK to call configNeedsSaving().

Will backport for 4.3.1
