Description Dmitri Koulikoff 2021-02-26 18:28:03 UTC 
SUMMARY

When I open the kate sessions popup it can not be resized any more in kde4 in contrast with kde4

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click on the Kate Session Launcher
2. Try to resize the opened list of the existing sessions

OBSERVED RESULT

It is not resizable any more.


EXPECTED RESULT

I should be able to change the height fo the widget.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Slackware-current
KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.79.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.10.18
OS Type: 64-bit
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 12 × Intel® Core™ i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz
Memory: 31.1 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics 630.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Probably, this problem is connected with the inability of the plasma widgets to be resized.
Then the height must be enough to show all existing sessions or reach the top of the window with the scroll bar.
The width must be enough to show the names of all the session names.
Then it is worth to add a setting for that also.

If the resize is not possible, make it 80% of the screen height

in the bug 332512 they speak the the new size it not being saved, but in my case I can not even resize it.
Comment 8 Nate Graham 2022-01-16 17:07:21 UTC 
It's the same thing. The people resizing it are using hacks to do so that are not supported. In all cases, the resolution is the same: properly support resizing panel popups.
