Description miklos 2015-11-09 13:00:23 UTC
Previously in KDE4 it was possible to
- Display cpu load per-core
- Display bars horizontally
- Hide the swap bar

Please restore the original functionality of this widget.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 miklos 2015-11-09 17:12:33 UTC
Meanwhile I found out how to hide the swap bar, and I see in the git log that the other two are known regressions since 4.x.
Comment 2 David Edmundson 2015-11-09 22:02:15 UTC
- Display cpu load per-core is back I think
Comment 3 Dominik Haumann 2016-06-03 16:30:31 UTC
Yes, display load per core is back, and disable of memory and / or swap also works.

The only thing that is not configurable anymore is whether the data is shown horizontally or vertically.
This indeed is maybe suboptimal, since if you put the panel on the left or right of the screen, then the data does not fit very well.

Anyways, I would rather prefer to close this as fixed, and have a new bug report specifically for the vertical orientation.

After updating my system the widget indeed shows per core information. Thanks. My only concern now is that there is a 1px gap between the first two cpu bars.
