Description Janet 2009-07-05 14:17:34 UTC

Version:           KDE 4.3 RC (using KDE 4.2.90)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I don't use the corner cashew but dragged it to one side of the desktop. Alas this leads to ghost entries on the desktop. When I log in sometimes there is a menu entry over the cashew on the first activity (plasma desktop, cashew on lower right side of desktop). And there is always a menu entry visible below the cashew on the second activity (folder view, cashew centered on left side of screen). When I unlock the widgets on first activity a plus sign flashes for a short moment above the cashew and on activity 2 appears the menu entry "Remove this Desktop". When I lock the widgets again this visible menu entry changes to "Unlock widgets". And when I unlock them again I have two entries overlapping each other: Remove this Desktop + Add Widgets...

This "ghost entry" is at the same position, left side of screen, on activity 2 even when the cashew for this activity sits on the right side, so I assume it's something from the cashew of the first activity that reaches into activity 2.

Sometimes the overlapping menu entries are "Remove this Desktop" + "Add Widgets..." and sometimes "Remove this Desktop" + "Folder View Settings".

This is due to a long-standing Qt bug that is fixed in the latest Qt snapshots. So, it will work as expected when the new Qt versions come out.

Marking as RESOLVED -> UPSTREAM

Now those ghost entries also appear on the dashboard. Do you know in which Qt version this will be solved?
