Description William H. Nugent 2008-11-06 12:22:52 UTC
Version:           unknown (using 4.1.2 (KDE 4.1.2), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27-7-generic

Right clicking on the clock causes the calendar to be displayed - so far, so good.  As soon as the focus is changed to another window the calendar goes away.  This makes it impossible to refer to the calendar while updating crontab, writing an email, programming, etc.

This used to work properly in KDE 3.X but is now broken.

Fixed in SVN commit 885323 by sebas:

Correctly update the size when the date string has changed

Until now, it would lag one update (which can be the initial one giving
a bad first impression) behind when determining its minimumwidth in the
panel. It correctly takes as much space as needed right after startup
and also after config changes.
