Version: (using KDE 4.2.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Fedora RPMs When placing a new widget (digital clock) on an otherwise empty panel, I was unable to move the widget. It decided it was going to live in the middle, whether I wanted that, or not. I added a system tray to try and alleviate this problem -- now I have a giant system tray taking up 75% of my space -- and a giant clock taking up 25% -- rather than the respective 10% and 10% that is appropriate.
As a workaround you can use the "Panel Spacer" plasmoid (it should be on kdebase-plasma-addons)
I guess that is a fedora bug then, since it is not in kdeplasma-addons. Well, thanks for the help.
Fedora claims it is your problem: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=486690. I have the package kdeplasma-addons (closest equivalent package name) installed, and this plasma widget does not seem to exist. If you could point me at the package name, or kde component a little more definitely, I could continue to pursue it with them.
We didn't claim it's an upstream problem, all we said is that it's not actually part of kdeplasma-addons.
Kevin, The claim was made that 'upstream is wrong', so I asked upstream for clarification. I don't care *whose* bug it is, it is a huge usability bug that needs fixed, so I am trying to get it tracked down and resolved.
