Comment 1 Nate Graham 2022-03-26 02:36:10 UTC
It's at position #3 for me, but same issue, really.

Interestingly enough, in KRunner itself is is much farther down, at position #10! There does seem to be something a bit off about the weightings for this case.

I imagine Info Center is first because it has an exact string match in its description, which is probably reasonable, because "About this system" has a match, but with the words in a different order. So that probably should have lower weighting. However the other items seem to get bumped up because they have a partial substring match in their names. So we should maybe prioritize a full match in the description over a partial match in the name.

After your fix for Bug 451634, the display in Kickoff is much better; now it's the second item in the list, which seems reasonable. See attachment.

...But it's still quite low down in the results list in KRunner. See attachment.

The fix did not change the sorting insider of kickoff, only if the KCM is displayed or not :)

Explicitly set parent app for energyinfo KCM

Because we want to use this in Plasma-Mobile, it needed to get installed in
the "plasma/kcms" namespace. But this means that we explicitly have to set
the parent app in order for it to be recognized as a kinfocenter KCM.

This appears fixed for me in 5.26.3, can anyone replicate the issue with current Plasma?
