Bug 276166 and maybe Bug 273695 seem to be duplicates? This seems to happen occasionally when rebooting. It's not consistent but as someone who turns his computer off every night I see this behavior often enough. I think i resolved this. I found that maximum number of lines for the desktop grid was set to one. When I set it to two I get back the nice square grid. I do not remember having set it this way. But nonetheless I set this to resolved. Should the setting change without me doing anything, I can still reopen the bug. Thanks. |
Created attachment 59894 [details] page in space wasting layout Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.6.2) OS: Linux I have a quite high panel at the top of the screen. Usually the pager with four desktops displays fits nicely in a square grid. Sometimes it switches to a space wasting layout which one desktop beneath the other. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: I have no idea on what circumstances this happens. Last time I think it happened after I restarted plasma-desktop to workaround some gfx corruption of the OSS radeon driver with KMS and Gallium 0.4 I think. Actual Results: The pager with four desktops displays usually fits the four desktop into one grid like +---+---+ | | | +---+---+ | | | +---+---+ Expected Results: But sometimes it thinks that this layout does not fit and layouts like: +-------+-------+-------+-------+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +-------+-------+-------+-------+ wasting a lot of space in the panel (see attached image). Logging out and in or restarting plasma-desktop does not help. Removing the applet and adding it back also did not help. I think what worked last time was removing the applet, logging out, logging in and then add it again.
