Description Salvo "LtWorf" Tomaselli 2009-11-15 00:39:10 UTC

Version:           0.9.2 (using 4.3.2 (KDE 4.3.2), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.31odino

The list of recent files, somehow is screwed up. I don't know how did it happen. But it is occurring even closing and reopening okular.

Please attach your ~/.kde/share/config/okularrc (check to not have confidential infos in it, before).

Comment 4 Pino Toscano 2009-11-15 14:37:30 UTC

Two tests to do:

1) try to open the recent file #10 (see entry File10[$e] in the okularrc) in kwrite (yes, even if it is a PDF, just take care to not edit it), and see whether the same problem happens in kwrite's recent files menu

2) run just okular with another style (eg `okular -style plastique`), and see whether the menu is painted correctly

Comment 5 Salvo "LtWorf" Tomaselli 2009-11-15 14:49:52 UTC

Your guess was right, also kwrite's recent files became weird.
For the record: same result with different style.

Comment 6 Albert Astals Cid 2009-11-20 00:40:28 UTC

I can't reproduce that, i mean, i open "http://www.chalmers.se/en/sections/education/student-life-at-chalmers/accommodation/downloadFile/attachedFile_f0/Student_housing_in_Goteborg_HT_2009-1.pdf?nocache=1241593982.66" that is long and doesn't fit on my screen and all i get is a menu that doesn't fit on screen but the menu contents are not destroyed like yours.
Are you using kwin desktop effects? Can you try disabling them?

Comment 7 Salvo "LtWorf" Tomaselli 2009-11-20 07:40:34 UTC

The one causing the problem is: "/home/salvo/Downloads/Douglas Adams - A Compendium - The Hitchhiker's Guide - The Dirk Gently Series - Last Chance To See - Starship Titanic - And More.pdf"

which is much longer than the one you chose

Comment 8 Albert Astals Cid 2009-11-20 20:24:38 UTC

I created a file with that name on a similar path and still works, what about my other question, do you use kwin desktop effects?

Comment 9 Salvo "LtWorf" Tomaselli 2009-11-20 20:42:41 UTC

Yes i do use them

Comment 10 Albert Astals Cid 2009-11-20 22:12:48 UTC

And does disabling kwin effects fix the problem?

Comment 11 Salvo "LtWorf" Tomaselli 2009-11-20 23:01:19 UTC

Yes
