Version: (using KDE 4.2.2) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages The name of the used city/weather station in the header of the weather widget should be wrapped when it is too long. E.g. I use the station "Hamburg - Fuhlsbüttel International, Germany". What I can read is "amburg - Fuhlsbuttel Intern al, Germany" where the "al, Germany" is outside the widget's borders. The first letter "H" is covered by the weather icon and the letters "ation" are mixed with the temperature so that I can neither read the text nor the temperature. And strange side effect: when the widget sits on the right side of the desktop of my first activity the header reaches into my second activity!

Created attachment 33483 [details] left side of 2nd activity (which should be independent of 1st activity that contains the widget)
the maximum width isn't being set correctly on that widget and clip-to-parent isn't on either

just tested with the 4.3 widget, and this works fine if a little bit ugly: if the name doesn't fit it's just chopped off at the end. (it really ought to fade out, imho, but at least it doesn't invade the rest of the canvas anymore ;)
Well, I'm now using KDE 4.3 Beta2 and it still isn't solved completely: it is ok as described, when I put the widget onto the desktop. It still is ok when I make it larger. But then I made it smaller than the default size and suddenly the long name again is displayed in full length, covering the temperature and reaching over the widgets borders. Or it this fixed too in trunk?
Hi, i think think, it would be best if the shown name could be edited by the user. I would shorten Hamburg - Fuhlsbüttel International, Germany to Hamburg Fuhlsbüttel. Since everybody probably takes his own city, there is no need to be so precise here.
Since 193443 is marked as dupe of this and isn't resolved at all I'm reopening this. See attached picture: -name of station is short enough to fit -if I make the widget larger at one point the contents begin to adapt to the widgets size. But making this smaller and the overflow. This "minimum content size" isn't enforced for the widget and even the default size when adding a new wheater widget is smaller than this size.

Btw: I'm running 4.4.1
Look at Bug 201154. Widget now seems to have a fixed minimum size so that all content stays inside the widget borders...
