The scrollbar is needed because the content does not entirely fit in the view. What I think you're saying is that the view should just be bigger in the first place. However no matter how big it is, if you have enough batteries, it will always become scrollable at some point. You are right. The maximum height can be the height of my monitor minus the Plasma control panes. This is far more than the current setting. I have submitted a merge request to make the popup a bit taller by default: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/84 Git commit 32e43ecf03a07b8c58b182eb5947e7c1fbdc2f25 by Nate Graham. Committed on 14/07/2020 at 19:13. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. [applets/systemtray] Increase height of popup a bit This generally improves things for applets that can display a lot of data, which are now less likely to become scrollable.

Created attachment 125815 [details] scrollbar.png SUMMARY Since quite a time, I have a scrollbar in my battery widget. See the attached screenshot. While this is technically irrelevant, it is a bit annoying from the user experience view since there is plenty of free room directly under the widget. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Click on the battery icon OBSERVED RESULT Get a scrollbar. EXPECTED RESULT Get no scrollbar.
