k3b 17.04 screenshot

This bug is not fixed on k3b 17.04 running on Arch.
Compare these two screenshots: K3b 2.0.3 screenshot shows correct disc space/time bar. K3b 17.04 screenshot shows thin disc space/time bar, I cant read  used/available disc space/time.

Hi Dr. Chapatin,

Thanks for your report!

Yes! QProgressBar is too thin (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C-OSvLTU0AASr7Y.png) to render even 8 pointSize font (https://cgit.kde.org/k3b.git/commit/?id=91000b9f3fd922d3e5b1a98310b1801cb49b56af)

To me it is not easy to read 8 pointSize font neither, even I took the pilot test when I was a high school student! it was a extremely vision test much more difficult than general physical examination. 

So there is plan B:
                 
               put big enough font above the QProgressBar
------------ thin --------------------- QProgressBar ---------------------------


I will choose plan B if you agree with it :)

Leslie Zhai
Comment 6 Patrick Silva 2017-04-27 01:31:33 UTC
I agree with your plan b.
Thanks Leslie.

Comment 8 Patrick Silva 2017-04-29 14:37:02 UTC
I think we need some vertical space between the disc space/time bar and the used/available disc capacity information. They look glued.
Thanks again Leslie.
Comment 9 Leslie Zhai 2017-04-29 16:34:54 UTC
Hi Dr. Chapatin,

Thanks for your review!

It is better to give a precise value, for example 3, for the vertical space, thanks!

Regards,
Leslie Zhai
Comment 10 Patrick Silva 2017-05-27 18:12:13 UTC
yes, I think 3 is a good value.
Thanks again.

Thin bug is still present.
Comment 12 Leslie Zhai 2017-07-23 15:40:59 UTC
I only fixed the vertical issue, but I have no idea about Horizontal, could you give me some hint? The green bar is too short for the Horizontal text, it doesn't like vertical, I can ask for more space for vertical text.
Comment 13 Patrick Silva 2017-07-23 19:18:18 UTC
Sorry, I have no idea Leslie.
Maybe other kde dev or kde visual design group can help you.
Actual bar is useless in some circumstances because its information is not readable.

or remove all the text above the QProgressBar? the bar is too thin and too narrow to render both vertical and horizontal text...
Comment 15 Patrick Silva 2017-07-24 12:45:31 UTC
"thin" is my typo. I meant "this"

:)

so what about remove all the text above the QProgressBar? only keep the whole thin long progressbar and gree bar, please give me some advice, thanks!
Comment 17 Patrick Silva 2017-07-27 03:05:17 UTC
maybe remove all the text above the QProgressBar and show the same info on mouseover (tooltip) the disc space/time bar? I dont know, maybe other kde dev or kde visual design group has a better idea.
Comment 18 Patrick Silva 2017-09-15 19:00:04 UTC
Hi Leslie
Any progress with this issue?
Comment 19 Leslie Zhai 2017-09-25 01:41:27 UTC
Hi Dr. Chapatin,

Sorry for my late response! perhaps you need to confirm that:

but not waiting for VGA or other developers, thanks!

K3b 17.12.2, Gnome 3.26.2, Arch Linux - K3b project almost empty

Can anyone explain why disc space/time bar of the same K3b version (17.12.2) installed on the same system (Arch Linux) looks different (and correct) on Gnome and broken on KDE Plasma please?
Compare screenshots taken on Gnome 3.26.2 and KDE Plasma 5.12.2.

Make the color of normalPen in FillStatusDisplayWidget desktop environment independent

It is able to change k3b.theme's Foregroundcolor, for example /usr/share/k3b/pics/quant/k3b.theme
So the color of normalPen could be same whethor under GNOME, KDE or other desktop enviroments

The text has uniform color and it's visible

The text has uniform color and it's visible until it position isn't too far right.

The text is partially white and partially themed

The text is now almost on the right edge. The left part has become white which is basically invisible, the right part follows the theme.
Comment 32 Andrej M. 2023-12-11 15:56:05 UTC
Dear maintainers,

I have added two screenshots that might be important for fixing the bug. The availability text is normal until it travels to the far right side of the progress bar. At that point, it almost looks as a boxed overlay appears over part of the text and covers it, making it unreadable. 

Best regards,
Andrej
