http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/rekonq/2010-May/001287.html

I've made a patch for rekonq that try to emulate a fixed size button in a ktoolbar (text alongside icons).

It's a hack and rekonq dev want this to be fixed in kdelibs.

So, please add an option to tell ktoolbar to have button with a fixed size when switching between kactions...

Exemple:

Current:
<@ Stop>
<@ Reloading>

Wanted:
<@ Stop       >
<@Reloading>

Reproducible: Didn't try

Since KAction is a QWidgetAction, you can have any widget inside it, even one that enforces specific size hints or limits.

From kdelibs perspective, I guess this is a WONTFIX.
Comment 2 David Faure 2010-10-05 01:23:29 UTC 
For the record: this could be fixed by KDualAction as proposed on kde-core-devel, if done properly.
Comment 3 Christoph Feck 2010-11-12 19:47:39 UTC 
Reopen since we now have KDualAction. It should be possible to compute the size hint from both actions. Aurélien?
Comment 4 Aurelien Gateau 2010-11-12 22:39:33 UTC 
KDualAction has the necessary information to compute the widest button, but right now it does not create buttons itself. Are you thinking about catching the created widget and setting a fixed width on it?
