Description Vincent Petry 2009-05-10 17:02:59 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start with the default task panel size.
2. Add the "battery/power" widget.
3. See that its icon is very small, as small as the system tray icons. Looks neat.
4. Now resize the task panel height to make the system tray icons appear in two rows.
5. See that the "battery/power" icon has grown its size and takes much more space. Its size has nearly doubled.

I would like to be able to keep the widget size as small as the system tray icons, so that it takes less space, possibly arranged in two rows as in the system tray. The best would to be able to move/merge that widget icon into the system tray, so that it can arrange itself like the systray icons, on two rows.

In KDE 3 the power management was done by kpowersave which had a system tray icon, small and convenient, but now it seems that it has been removed/replaced by that plasma widget which takes more room with my task bar size.

Any other suggestions ?
