Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.4)

When started from picture with landscape orientation, picture frame keeps the orientation and frame size even for portrait oriented slides. This does not happen before 4.7.

Do you have the package libkexiv2 installed?
Comment 2 Anne-Marie Mahfouf 2012-01-27 13:31:50 UTC
Waiting to know if you have libkexiv2 installed.
Comment 3 Ignatiy 2012-01-27 18:52:58 UTC
Yes, libkexiv2 installed.
I have x86_64 distributive architecture.
OpenSUSE has the same problem with a widget-frame of what Fedora.

Comment 4 Anne-Marie Mahfouf 2012-01-27 19:09:30 UTC
Probably I did not understand the problem: do you mean it happens when the applet is in the panel?
Comment 5 Ignatiy 2012-01-27 19:35:28 UTC
Yes. Drag the applet from the desktop to the panel.
Comment 6 Anne-Marie Mahfouf 2012-01-27 19:46:31 UTC
When was the last version that it worked?
Comment 7 Ignatiy 2012-01-27 21:00:27 UTC
I do not know. In kde 4.4.5(4.4.3) is not working. In some earlier versions. Perhaps in 4.3.5 working. Because in 4.2.4 widget-frame not yet been. I do not remember exactly.

Comment 9 Anne-Marie Mahfouf 2012-01-28 08:49:32 UTC
This is an overall Plasma problem, not a widget frame only. Try with Comic (using APOD for example with a vertical image on the desktop then drag it to the panel: it expands horizontally as much as it can).

Not sure what component to reassign this bug report. Thanks for your help in answering the questions!

Hello!

This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug is already resolved in Plasma 5.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described  here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!
