Created attachment 119680 [details] screen recording SUMMARY As we can see in attached screen recording, the buttons above "Order by:" are resized when you start to type a search term. Such behavior affects all GHNS windows on my system. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. open system settings > Icons 2. click "Get new icons..." button 3. start to type any search term OBSERVED RESULT Watch the attached screen recording please. EXPECTED RESULT no button is resized SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.57.0 Qt Version: 5.12.3
It looks like the text field's clear button appearing provokes the size change.
I can't reproduce this behavior anymore. Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.58.0 Qt Version: 5.12.0
Me neither. Possibly fixed by the horizontal scrollbar sizing bug fix.
This behavior is reroducible again. Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.60.0 Qt Version: 5.13

Git commit 91e46e975fa52ecde1fa0bc54e678c1bdeea8ae8 by Alexander Lohnau. Committed on 22/07/2020 at 09:32. Pushed by alex into branch 'master'. Fix moving buttons when seach text is inserted FIXED-IN: 5.73 By setting a maximum width we can be sure that the layout does not move when the clear button gets shown. Also the placeholder text gets changes to "Search ...", because the old text can't be fully displayed.

Created attachment 130551 [details] new screen recording This bug is less noticeable after your patch, but it persists. Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.73.0 Qt Version: 5.14.2
humm, surprisingly I can't reproduce on Arch Linux after update to frameworks 5.73, then I noticed that this behavior is related to font used. On Arch I use Roboto and on affected neon unstable I use Liberation Sans. I changed to default font settings and this behavior is no longer reproducible on neon unstable too.
Hmm, this is a really nische bug and it now only affects users who changed the fontconfig. Would you mind marking this bug as resolved? In general the QWidgets dialog is more or less on life support.
I think that this issue should not be reproducible with any font settings. But you can close this report if you want. :)
OK. :)
