Created attachment 62408 [details] Red square is showing the are the bar should be continued to Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.7.0) OS: Linux I've noticed in weechat, when two or more windows (channels or private messages) are open and you switch between the two of them the status bar is "chomped" up. Typing /redraw inside weechat seems to fix it, temporarily until you change window again. This does not happen in iTerm, Terminal.app, PuTTY, Gnome Terminal or LXTerminal (some of the many terminals I use). This also effects Yakuake. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Weechat in Konsole 2. Open some channels, in this case i was in #kde, #kubuntu, #ubuntu and had a private message open 3. Switch between the channels Actual Results: Bar is chomped up and disappears (but never gets any shorter than where the actual text is) so in the screenshot it'll never get shorter than the 5] part of Act, but it will vary inside the red square) Expected Results: The bar (as shown with red square I added in gimp) should stay the full length of the terminal window and shouldn't be "chomped up" This bug effects Konsole 2.7 and all previous (all 4.X releases that I've used).
maybe related with #267158?
I can reproduce this problem in weechat with high probability, especially when switching from channel window to the server window. This problem looks quite similar to #173874(see its attachment)

I found the cause of this problem. Konsole only saves relevant chars for each line. If the window if wider than the missing chars are drawn with the default color (seems to have transparent background). I created a patchset that fixes the problem: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/105325/
Using Konsole 2.9.1 on KDE 4.9.1 I cannot reproduce this anymore, so it must be fixed.
@Kalidarn : Thanks for your follow up. But I can still reproduce this , and the patch proposed by Alexander has not been applied because it is an immature fix and cause other problems. So I really doubt this has been magically fixed.
I can report, this bug isn't fixed. My mistake. I was able to reproduce it in Konsole 2.9.2 on KDE 4.9.2.
I can't seem to reproduce this in Konsole 2.11 - KDE 4.11.00 so this must be fixed now.
Created attachment 81752 [details] Ugh, still there. wait no, nevermind. It's still there :( Seems every time I think it is fixed, it happens again
Still reproducible in KDE 4.14.1 Konsole 2.14.1 This is ridiculous
I've tracked down the cause a bit more, it seems to only trigger after doing this https://weechat.org/files/doc/weechat_faq.en.html#urls
