I'm using Plasma 5.8.0 LTS and I have the "System Load Viewer" applet in my panel. I've set it to "Circular" display and there's a very visible gap between the circles, almost as large as the circles themselves. It's possible that this only happens with reasonable small panel vertical sizes. I've mine set to be smaller than the default. This particular problem did not exist in one of the recent other Plasma releases, although I can't say exactly which version was OK. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make sure you're running Plasma 5.8.0 LTS 2. Add the System Load Viewer applet to the panel 3. Set the applet to "Circular" display mode. 4. Playing around with the vertical size of the panel helps to illustrate the problem. Actual Results: The gap between the circles is too large. Expected Results: There should be only a small gap between the circles.

Is this still an issue or relevant with the new System Monitor applet in Plasma 5.19 and beyond?
Yes, the circles still have too much gap between them for my taste - but I guess one get's used to it after a while so it's not a huge problem. This is about "System Load Viewer", not "System Monitor". I don't see any error messages in the journal anymore, though.

I'm closing this report, since the System Load Viewer is no longer a part of KDE Plasma. My apologies that we weren't able to change this. For any bugs that are still being encountered, please open a new report. Thanks.
