kinfocenter "About this system" icon outline misalignment near memory

Using testing versions from Arch, the information icon here is appearing too short in VM, not sure if its already fixed.
Comment 1 Nate Graham 2025-06-16 17:23:06 UTC
Can reproduce, especially if I reduce the small font to something smaller than default or use a different font.

The current implementation makes this somewhat challenging since we constrain the height of the button to the height of the line, and the line is quite short. We could make the icon smaller, though it might look awkward.
Comment 2 Erwin Iosef 2025-06-17 08:17:39 UTC
Any suggestions from the team? How about removing the button and making it a fixed label like the discrete/integrated line? The problem is with the outline after all.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2025-06-17 13:50:01 UTC
The text is much too long for an integrated label; I don't think that would work.
Comment 4 Erwin Iosef 2025-06-17 13:53:39 UTC
No, I mean make it a label upon which you hover and get the same dialog bubble anyway, how about that?
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2025-06-17 13:59:43 UTC
No, that wouldn't be discoverable. The current UI element was specifically created to address that issue with hover-tooltip-based help text.
Comment 6 Erwin Iosef 2025-06-18 12:45:23 UTC
I'm out of ideas then 😅, apart from resizing the outline in proportion to font size plus more, but I guess that's the challenging part.
Comment 7 Erwin Iosef 2025-06-20 16:10:46 UTC
The "integrated/discrete" label also look a bit congested with smaller font size of 9pt with the button on top directly
