Wrong spacing on system tray icons

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Get any distro with support for a live session or make a fresh install (Tested with Neon and Fedora)
2. Boot it for the first time

OBSERVED RESULT

On the first start up icons will have the wrong spacing (check screenshot). When a new icon appears (like the Plasma Browser integration icon when opening Firefox) the icons return to their intended places.

EXPECTED RESULT

Icons should have consistent spacing on first boot.

XD

I don't know if this helps but I'm running on a 1366x768 laptop screen and it happens on both Xorg (Neon) and Wayland (Fedora). Since Fedora ships with Plasma 5.21.4 it has been happening at least since Plasma 5.21. I could try an older Plasma version if you want.

The icons never show the bug again after the first boot on a fresh install.

ok phew, then it isn't another recent sizing regression introduced by me...
Comment 4 Nate Graham 2022-01-11 20:49:34 UTC
Are you able to reproduce this in Plasma 5.23?
Comment 5 guimarcalsilva 2022-01-11 22:41:30 UTC
I don't know about 5.23 but 5.24 seems okay now.
I downloaded the latest Neon Unstable and I couldn't reproduce the issue. When I installed it on a VM at first the only icon present was the volume one (see screenshot) but I guess that's just the VM being slow to load, since after about 30 seconds or so all icons appeared and they were in the right places. I also tried a live session on real hardware and couldn't see anything wrong.

Oh good, thank you!

The issue there is specific to the Networks applet.
