Description Milan Krivda 2009-01-04 13:00:35 UTC

Version:           4.1.87 (KDE 4.1.87 (KDE 4.2 >= 20090101)) "release 1.1" (using 4.1.87 (KDE 4.1.87 (KDE 4.2 >= 20090101)) "release 1.1", KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE:Desktop / openSUSE_11.1)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.27.7-9-default

In help viewer part of KDE Help Center window (on right side of window) is always visible unnecessarily horizontal scroll bar. This scroll bar is always scrollable about 10 pixels and their size do not depend on content or windows size. If i resize window (or maximize) scroll bar is always visible and scrollable about 10 pixels.

Bug is visible on these screens http://picasaweb.google.com/milan.krivda/KDE4Bugs# (akregator1.png, akregator2.png files)

I seen this bug in all KDE Help Center releases based on qt4/kde4.

Comment 1 Dario Andres 2009-05-17 01:13:08 UTC

I can't reproduce this bug here using:

Qt: 4.5.1 (qt-copy  958974)
KDE: 4.2.86 (KDE 4.2.86 (KDE 4.3 >= 20090514))
kdelibs svn rev. 968443 / kdebase svn rev. 968445
on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.29.3

Can you still reproduce it with a current KDE version? Thanks

Comment 2 Burkhard Lück 2011-07-20 16:28:08 UTC

$ khelpcenter --version
Qt: 4.7.0
KDE: 4.6.95 (4.7 RC2)
KDE-Hilfezentrum: 4.6.95 (4.7 RC2)

Not reproducable here, even with a very small window. I never get a unnecessarily horizontal scroll bar.

Only in case of screenshot wider than the actual khelpcenter window a horizontal scroll bar appears and allows me to scroll to see the whole image.

Comment 3 Janek Bevendorff 2012-06-11 17:10:01 UTC

Closing the bug because it can't be reproduced anymore in recent versions of KDE. Feel free to reopen it if you are able to do so in KDE 4.8.3 or later.
