Version: unspecified (using Devel) OS: Linux Adding the presence applet to the desktop is ok, but adding to a panel results in an invisible status icon: http://wstaw.org/m/2012/01/26/presence-applet.png Hovering the mouse reveals a pop-up showing that the applet was added correctly and right-click works as expected. Rebooting doesn't help. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Add presence-applet to a panel Actual Results: no icon visible, but applet is there and working Expected Results: visible status icon - ktp-presence-applet 0.3 - kde 4.8 - chakra linux 64bit All packages from repos
you are right,,, as a workaround activate it from system tray! Alin
Confirmed... Until this is fixed you can add it to the system tray by right clicking on it > System Tray Settings > select "Instant Messaging Presence" from the Extra Items list

I fixed this by painting the icon directly (and by correcting it to Plasma::Applet instead of Plasma::PopupApplet), however the clicking action got broken (as in you click the plasmoid and nothing happens), even though the signals and slots are correctly connected. I'll push the patch for review tomorrow.

Change from Plasma::PopupApplet to Plasma::Applet and use Plasma::IconWidget for the icon This ensures proper icon painting when the plasmoid is put in panels Reviewed-by: David Edmundson REVIEW: 104675 M +1 -1 plasma_applet_ktp_presence.desktop M +32 -30 src/presenceapplet.cpp M +4 -5 src/presenceapplet.h http://commits.kde.org/telepathy-presence-applet/065758007d49a00d6d2d70d7aca8ca13698be277
