Description xkmalikx 2016-07-14 12:25:33 UTC 
Sometimes a couple of minutes/hours after booting the system the kickoff launcher loses its category descriptions as can be seen on: https://s31.postimg.org/q36yqgxor/image.png.
This happens randomly and started after the 5.7.0 update.

Just after fresh boot descriptions like "favorites", "history" etc. are visible once again and then they sometimes disappear after some time.



Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add the kickoff launcher widget
2. Do what you wish for about 1 or 2 hours
3. Check the kickoff launcher, it should be missing the descriptions

Actual Results:  
Missing descriptions like "favorites" or "history"

Expected Results:  
There should be visible category descriptions just as they are after the fresh boot.

Plasma 5.7.1 on Arch Linux. "Breeze-dark" theme, with "breeze" colors and "breeze" icons.

I have never seen disappearing category titles (even after days of uptime). Maybe caused by OpenGL drivers.
