Created attachment 165821 [details] Small vs big widget Right now this message is only shown in the expanded area of the error message UI, which is hidden by default for small widgets. That's not ideal since it may mislead the user into thinking that small incompatible widgets are simply broken, rather than incompatible. See the attached screenshot for an example of how this would happen. When widgets are incompatible, I'd recommend replacing the main text with "[widget name] Is not compatible with Plasma 6"
