SUMMARY The numbers displayed when the widget is in a small panel are very difficult to read and therefore should not be displayed in this condition. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add the memory monitor widget to a panel that is less than the plasma defaults by default. 2. Try to read it without touching your eyes on the screen OBSERVED RESULT https://i.imgur.com/raXeGVI.png (the screenshot is a zoom, so it's much more visible here than on the monitor screen) EXPECTED RESULT I think it makes no sense to display this number on the widget because it is possible to access them in a more complete and visible way simply by clicking on it. This is the behavior of the other monitoring widgets as well. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.82.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Graphics Platform: X11
To be more clear, I mean not showing the numbers on the panel widget. Because to remove both currently (panel and popup) it is possible (although it is necessary to restart the plasma for this)
Can confirm: the percentage is almost illegible, and there seems to be no way to remove it.
At the moment this UX is intentional. We've made an effort to improve it for Plasma 6.2 though, so hopefully the text should be more legible.
