Version: (using KDE 4.3.0) Compiler: gcc (Gentoo 4.3.3-r2 p1.2, pie-10.1.5) 4.3.3 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled From Sources When using a side panel and having desktop folder view switched on, all the folder view icons are displayed below the level of the bottom of the panel - despite the panel only being ~2cm wide (e.g. for a side panel 600px high, starting from the top left corner, all the folder view icons will display at least 600px from the top edge of the screen). This is a regression - in 4.2.4 this worked perfectly, and icons were displayed next to the panel where they should be, rather than under it.
I can confirm this behavior on an up-to-date arch linux system with KDE 4.3.0.
screenshots please (attach them to this bug report using the "Add an attachment" link at the bottom of this page). thanks.
Created attachment 35850 [details] Example of bug Example of icons displaying below the level of the panel.
Still present on 4.3.1.
Still present in KDE 4.4 beta 2, Qt 4.6.0. I have to say, though, that in some circumstances it does work correctly. I tried the same scenario as in the screenshot, but tested with different panel lengths and noticed that when the panel is short, this bug occurs. When the panel is longer, though, it works (at least this bug doesn't occur). When dragging the panel down (to be longer), the change happened approximately when the panel was half of the screen's height. There are also some other odd things happening to the display of the folder view's contents when only changing the panel's length, but that's a different bug report. I'll add screenshots.
