NM Connection Details disappear

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) 
OS:                Linux

I have a Apache server running on my machine and my router forwards its port to my 192.168.0.101. Because today I had trouble with connectivity, I switched back to Auto eh0 with DHCP. I opened the adapter details and saw, I had the IP 192.168.0.104 thus making the Apache unavailable from outside. I left the details opened and just clicked on “Fest IP” (Fixed IP), then the adapter details vanished, connecting again to Auto eh0 made them appear again. Also going back to the main view and switching back to the adapter details made them visible again.
See screencast.

I cannot reproduce this problem. My guess is that is related to your font size. Try increasing the font size and see what happens.

master branch does show the two panels at the same time where this problem happens.
