Created attachment 47616 [details] Before I kill plasma-desktop Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.4.3) OS: Linux My corner panel with various icons, a pager, a tray, and the basic clock keeps on forgetting its length. My panel is vertical and lives in a corner. I've attached a bunch of screenies. Of course, even when it has a minimum size, it's still too big, looks like the clock applet asks for way more space than it really needs. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1) The panel isn't so crazily sized right now, because I manually resized it. 2) My manually set minimum size (with the little slidy arrow) is smaller than the actual minimum size (because I want the panel as tiny as possible) 3) killall and restart plasma-desktop 4) The panel's the wrong length! :( To get it to the normal size again, I need to first resize it _larger_ than what its minimum should be, than shrink it down again with the "minimum size" slidy arrow. Actual Results: I got annoyed. Expected Results: I should not be annoyed.

please attach your plasma-desktop*rc files from ~./kde/share/config/ so we can attempt to reproduce.

should be fixed by http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=1136814
Now on KDE 4.4.5: Same thing. I start KDE, the panel's too small and then I resize it bigger and then smaller (in one drag) and it's correct. It appears to be too small by exactly the size of the clock applet.
still in version 4.6.3. This is unbelievably easy to reproduce (on 3 machines already). All you need to do is run a vertical panel!
I run a (two actually) vertical panel and cannot reproduce this on the current version (4.10). Please try with the current version.
Hello! This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug is already resolved in Plasma 5. Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging Thanks for your understanding!
