Created attachment 59768 [details] how it looks now Version: 4.6 (using KDE 4.6.2) OS: Linux When I try to show my network interfaces by their manifacturer,their description is overly long and the text spreads to the neighbouring windows. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1) Click on the network manager widget. 2) Click 'change connections' button on the right (I do not use english localisation, so the name might be different) 3) Choose other 4) Sort interfaces by manifacturer Actual Results: Interfaces' descriptions do not fit their respected window. Expected Results: They should fit the window one way or the other. Either the window should match the information contained in it, or the descripion should wrap. There is also a usability problem if you have several devices that can be connected to a single network and you sort the interfaces by their description. Their name would be essentially the same - 'Wireless Network Interface', whick leads to confusion as to which one is being currently used. For now, I'm stuck with showing network interfaces by the system name. 'wlan0'/'wlan1' is short and distinct enough.
