To reproduce: - open bug 283195 in Konqueror - open another Konqueror window - click the grouped task to get the menu Actual results: - the title of the first Konqueror window is very long, and this makes the menu unreadable Expected results: - task item names get limited/elided to e.g. 80% of available screen width
Oh, actually, they _are_ elided, but still larger than my screen's width.
Git commit 5dd8352f2e8a579034b91c2f6b269df29ffc85cd by Eike Hein. Committed on 27/07/2013 at 17:05. Pushed by hein into branch 'KDE/4.11'. Try to make sure the group dialog stays within a sane width limit. The approach taken is "behave reasonably on 640x480 and above" by clipping the bounding box of the task items to the max() of that minimum supported resolution (taking dialog margins and, if vert- ically oriented, a likely panel into account) and the applet's width. A perfect impementation would figure out the dimensions of the work area (i.e. screen sans relevant struts) and clip to that, but knowing how much C++ that takes to do correctly on multi- head (as Yakuake does it) and seeing how the goal is to have a QML task manager, I don't feel that's maintainable for now. Let's look into improving PlasmaCore.Dialog in libplasma2 instead to help with avoiding too unreasonably large dialogs instead, or perhaps Qt Quick 2 will evolve a helper. There's a TODO in there for now. On the flip side, this actually behaves better than the old applet anyway, which had rather more unreasonable popup sizing ...
