Description DHCP Easyness 2018-10-27 23:32:26 UTC

SUMMARY
In Kubuntu 18.10 64-bit, when attempting to shrink the width of the places panel to be smaller than the width of the enclosed items, the width will automatically regress (to full size / auto-fit) after I release the mouse button and move the pointer

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open dolphin
2. Re-size the places panel width to be small
3. Release the mouse button
4. Move the pointer a little bit

OBSERVED RESULT
The places panel resumes it's full width

EXPECTED RESULT
The places panel remains at the width I just resized it

SOFTWARE VERSIONS
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.13.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.50.0
Qt Version: 5.11.1

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There is a workaround (mostly works).  If I do not move the pointer after resize, and immediately close dolphin (using keyboard shortcut), when I restart dolphin the new width is present and will stay. So I think the problem is related to moving the pointer immediately after resize.

Places panel width resize worked regular in Kubuntu 18.04 and 18.04.1, so that is why I marked as a regression

Thanks for the detailed steps to reproduce. Kubuntu 18.10 ships with Dolphin 18.04.3, but I cannot reproduce with Dolphin 18.08.x or git master. Looks like it's already been fixed.
