Description William Hilton 2007-12-24 03:05:04 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I noticed the Icon applet seems to enforce a minimum size when resizing. This is an excellent idea for ALL applets, because it becomes impossible to reasonably display some plasmoids within a certain pixel size. Also, interactive plasmoids cease to be usable at incredibly small sizes. E.g. nothing is useful at 2 px wide, a launcher icon may be usable at 10px, while the Calculator plasmoid would need a still larger min size to operate properly. Each applet should be required to specify a minimum size (in pixels) needed to function nicely.

(I think the size limit for the Icon applet is a little large, because much smaller icons would still be usable, but the idea is very good.)

SVN commit 752292 by jstubbs:

Give applets a default minimum content size of 16x16. This shouldn't be too
big for the panel and can still be overridden by applets.
