Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

When having no WiFi hardware there is no need of showing that “Enable wireless networking” checkbox in networkmanager plasmoid.

Reproducible: Always

Hide the "Enable Wireless" checkbox if there is no wireless interface
available. The checkbox still takes space in the plasmoid, there is no way to
prevent that without some sort of code logic that I think is not worth the
trouble.

Thanks, that was quick :)
You could swap the Enable networking and Enable Wireless checkboxes, so the enable networking is always at the bottom of the plasmoid.
Or just disable (grey it out) the checkbox instead of hiding it altogether?
