Description Karsten 2024-03-08 15:11:21 UTC

Created attachment 166721 [details]
cramped menu entries and random spacing for sub menus

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. switch the a program/start menu to kicker
2. open kicker

OBSERVED RESULT
all entries are cramped together with minimal spacing
sub menus open with random spacing

EXPECTED RESULT
entries with more spacing as in screenshots like https://userbase.kde.org/File:Kicker.png
sub menus somewhat visually attached to the rest of the menu

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.0.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- current Arch Linux running kde 6.0.1, Nvidia 550.54.14 on a 3060ti
- Wayland or X11 backend does not matter (x11 backend adds additional black background but that is not limited to Kicker)
- happens on an upgraded or even a fresh/empty user profile

This looks like an NVIDIA GPU driver glitch. Does it happen with a driver version that's earlier than 550? I suspect it won't.

Comment 2 Karsten 2024-03-10 22:12:02 UTC

The same thing happens on 545.29.06.

Comment 3 Karsten 2024-03-10 23:06:56 UTC

I think something went wrong while updating.
After reinstalling libplasma the menu works as expected.
Sorry for the confusion.
