SUMMARY Unlike KSysGuard's status bar or htop's header, plasma-systemmonitor's Processes page lacks a status bar for me to check total CPU/memory/swap while looking at the process list. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open System Monitor. 2. Click on the Applications or Processes page. OBSERVED RESULT There is no status bar, so you can't check per-app and total CPU/memory at once. If you try editing the layout to add a status bar showing CPU/memory/swap in a compact region of the screen, you instead get a section that takes up half the window size. EXPECTED RESULT I can check total CPU/memory while in the applications/processes list. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.13.9-zen1-1-zen (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 6-Core Processor Memory: 15.6 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GT 730/PCIe/SSE2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is related to bug 438848, but that bug wants to see total CPU usage on the CPU graph page, while this bug wants to see total CPU usage on the processes list page.
Seems reasonable.

Git commit 01e0a2d56b5ccc8bf4efa314f986f35b08598c1e by Arjen Hiemstra. Committed on 20/10/2021 at 12:35. Pushed by ahiemstra into branch 'master'. Allow changing row heights to one of three different modes This introduces a "heightMode" property for page rows, which allows a user to select one of three different behaviours for the height of a row. Minimum will use the minimum size of the row, balanced matches the old behaviour where we try to balance the row height between different rows and finally maximum which will try to use as much space as possible. This allows for some different layouts where there's a single row of text only sensors, most of the space is used for a process table or similar constructions.
