Description _ 2005-01-18 00:06:01 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.91)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.4.3 
OS:                Linux

In applications like Kontact there is a really large space between the "What's This?" button and other buttons in the toolbar.

Screenshot? Sure that it's a Qt bug?

It might not be a QT bug but rather a Kontact bug.
Comment 3 Stephan Binner 2005-01-18 19:51:35 UTC
Doesn't happen here.
Comment 4 _ 2005-01-18 19:54:18 UTC
It's through whole Kontact, not just the calendar.
Comment 5 Ismail Donmez 2005-02-11 10:46:27 UTC
Can confirm with current cvs.
Comment 6 Teemu Rytilahti 2005-04-14 23:39:14 UTC
Btw, is there some reason to show this icon in toolbar as default at all? IMHO this is unwanted clutter we should try to remove...
Comment 7 mcamen 2005-05-01 22:44:06 UTC
The space increases every time one switches kontact modules (like kmail -> knode).
Comment 8 Wilbert Berendsen 2005-05-18 15:13:31 UTC
Same here. Space also increases when starting Kontact while it is already running. I use only the mail, addresses and calendar components.
Comment 9 Tobias Koenig 2005-05-28 17:44:49 UTC
Hi,

not reproducable with current version, I guess the fixes in kxmlgui has solved this issue as well.

Anyway thank you very much for reporting.

Ciao,
Tobias

Configure Toolbars Dialogs

Hmmm, still not working here with fresh svn trunk (kdelibs, kdebase, kdepim).
Can you check if the entries in the 'Configure Toolbars' dialog is correct?
Especially the 'ActionList: toolbar_filter_actions',
'ActionList:naviagtor_actionlist' and '<Merge>' ones.
Comment 11 Glenn 2005-10-18 11:34:21 UTC
Me too :)
Actually only get the extra spacing on the 'whats this' icon when I use the systray icon for kmail. hiding and showing kontact again makes the icon shift right away from the embeded application toolbar (ie those icons enclosed by the <Merge> function of kontact toolbars). Stopping kontact properly clears the problem problem until I use the systray icon again.

Please reopen this since it's not really fixed. As noted by the last comments, the problem is still there when minimizing and maximizing from the system tray. The "What's This" button in both KMail and KOrganizer will drift rightwards pushing everything to its right along with it until it even falls out of the screen.

I can see this with KDE 3.5.4 on FreeBSD 6.1, and during last year I've also noticed it on SUSE 10.0 and Kubuntu Dapper.

Reopening as requested.
Comment 15 karaluh 2006-12-14 12:53:14 UTC
For me it's caused by Antispam filter, which creates ActionList: toolbar_filter_actions in kmail_parts. When removing the Action list it's back to normal.

same problem. I switch between rss and mail a lot, so after a few days it gets so bad I have to restart kontact.

I just tried moving the antispam actionlist to another place on the toolbar, and weirdness happened. it stayed in the same place, but the extra space vanished, and the navigator toolbar lost half its icons (rss, basket, and some others). I could still get to rss, but the toolbar button and keyboard shortcut was gone. had to restart kontact again.
actionlists in general seem to be very buggy things that don't like to be touched. looks like this one is setting new records in bugginess!
Comment 19 George Kiagiadakis 2008-09-29 00:29:04 UTC
I can't reproduce this bug in svn trunk r865463.
Comment 20 Harald Sitter 2009-06-29 18:56:44 UTC
Can't reproduce on KDE 4.2 either. Marking bug resolved.
