Seems to be triggered by resume-from-suspend. Random digits are missing from the clock. Sometimes from the time, sometimes from date. Only way to get them back that I've found is to logout and back in. Spectacle is not able to take a screenshot of the panel, so I'll attach a phone pic instead. Reproducible: Always

I can reproduce this issue... I'll do some more testing... I've tried increasing the width in: org.kde.plasma.digitalclock/ ... /DigitalClock.qml 96: Layout.minimumWidth: Math.max(labelsFlow.width+2, dateLabel.paintedWidth) just to see what effect this has... :-)

Looks like a driver/Qt bug to me, though, re-assigning to plasmashell Digital Clock
The bug is still here and is very annoying. You can't have office PC without the clock in the tray. A suggestion for a workaround would be highly appreciated. In my case, digital clock is missing hours, and displays something like " :45". Happens sometimes after reboot and the only cure is to reboot. I use 4k display and I somehow think it may be connected.
Are you using the nvidia drivers? There are known issues with OpenGL buffers getting lost after a suspend/resume cycle with those.
I am using Nvidia drivers. However, if you are talking about system suspend/resume - I never use those. Too many problems with them, really.
Still present in Plasma 5.11.4 with Qt 5.9.3. Still occurring after some (not all) suspend-resume cycles on my laptop. Nvidia proprietary driver 387.34 with a Geforce GTX 970M.
I can confirm this issue. On my system it is triggered when switching users.
Same issue on Kubuntu 20.04. It is sensible to font settings and actual date text. I don't know how to upload screenshots, but perhaps I can add links to them at least. There were problems after the upgrade from 19.10, then I changed font settings and since then it worked without issues until today. https://photos.app.goo.gl/rGcQ7LC2S2V4voYN8 - only first digit visible Then I tried to enable BOLD text and now I have this: https://photos.app.goo.gl/2yyziopQAqLEMBt47 - missing decade digit.

For anyone still experiencing this in Plasma 5.18 or 5.20, can you please update your NVIDIA drivers to the very latest versions and see if it's still happening?

I can confirm that now it is OK on my machine. Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS Nvidia Driver version: 450.80.02
This is with plasma 5.20 on FreeBSD (ports from head): The digital panel clock (version 3.0) looses digits of the time. It is not related to suspend/resume (because I can't use them with FreeBSD) and also not related to NVIDIA driver (my Acer C720 laptop uses Intel). From time to time some of the digits of the clock in the panel are going away. I will attach a screenshot or look here: http://www.unixarea.de/clock.png To make them appear again I change the characters for the digits from normal to bold (or vice versa) and then after some time they're away again.

I *suppose* this is a bug with Text.Fit mode that the Date & Time applet uses. I just happened to play with user switcher applet, trying to make its layout work for both vertical and horizontal orientations, and I discovered that a text label may randomly shift waaay down for no good reason. It might or might not be related, but matter of the fact: Text::fontSizeMode is buggy, and there may be more surprises to come.

We recently fixed an issue in Plasma 5.26 with various plasmoids being visually corrupted on wake-from-sleep when using an NVIDIA GPU. Those of you who are experiencing similar issues but without having woken form sleep, or not using an NVIDIA GPU, can you please file new bug reports so we can make sure those separate issues are tracked correctly and don't get mistakenly rolled up here? Thanks!
I can confirm that things got generally better after laptop waking up from sleep, at least on X11. On Wayland thoughyesterday I got an extremely glitchy picture with artifacts covering the whole screen, but that might have been related to multi-screen setup (I connected it to a "new" TV via HDMI before waking up).

Re-opening since we just got a duplicate report of the same issue (clock digits missing after resume from suspend with an NVIDIA GPU) from someone using Plasma 6.
