Description Igor Strelnikoff 2010-10-17 19:14:32 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.2) 
OS:                Linux

The menu item "Switch User" in old-style mode is called "Start in parallel on behalf of another user" and the inscription does not fit in length and cut, a hint for the item "Switch User" they are obviously confused in some places

But Kickoff style mode it's fine

See attached screenshot


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Toggle "Menu to launch applications" from kiсkoff style menu in the old-style menu

In KDE 4.6 beta2 this bug fixed when porting this patch to a branch 4.5.х?
Comment 14 Giorgos Tsiapaliokas 2011-01-11 12:39:55 UTC
yes indeed in kde 4.6.40 (4.7 >= 20101222)i cannot reproduce the bug.

but in kde-4.5.4 i can reproduce.

i am now compiling kde-4.5.5 i will reply again informing you if the bug is fixed.
Comment 15 Christoph Feck 2011-01-11 14:10:06 UTC
The commit is only in 4.6 branch. And the favorites menu is not fixed yet.
Comment 16 Giorgos Tsiapaliokas 2011-04-05 12:10:30 UTC
What is wrong with the favourites menu?
Comment 17 Christoph Feck 2011-04-05 14:41:46 UTC
Try adding "KNetWalk" to the Favorites menu. Even when set to "Names only", the Favorites menu (in classic mode) says "Network Construction Game", which clearly is the description instead of the name.

Same for non-games, too, such as "Virtual Keyboard" instead of just "xvkbd". It also seems to use the .desktop file name, I get "konqbrowser" instead of "Konqueror".
Comment 18 Igor Strelnikoff 2011-07-24 16:53:24 UTC
I noticed another bug with the mixed up items, this time in the setup menu Classic Menu Launcher. See new screenshots.

Comment 23 Christoph Feck 2011-10-25 13:02:52 UTC
From what I can see, the commit for bug 249501 fixed the issue mentioned in comment #17 (at least for my usecase of only showing names). If you are still seeing name/description problems with KDE 4.7.3, please add a comment or reopen.
