Description Rafał Malinowski 2012-01-15 12:30:30 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

Widgets explorer uses horizontal scrolling. This makes it very hard to scroll, user, read detailed widget descriptions.

Horizontal scrolling should be avoided as much as possible. Please implement version with vertical scrolling or allow to change its layout from vertical to horizontal.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. unlock widgets on desktop
2. choose "Add widget" option


Actual Results:  
widgets explorer with horizontal scrolling appears without possibility to change its orientation

Expected Results:  
widgets explorer with vertical scrolling appears

This is implemented in Plasma 5. This ticket can therefore be closed.
