Thank you for the bug report! However Plasma 6.0.0 no longer receives updates or maintenance from KDE; active versions are 6.4 or newer. Please upgrade to an active version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one. If you need help with Plasma 6.0.0, please contact your distribution, who bears the responsibility of providing help for older releases that are no longer receiving updates from KDE. If you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to an active version, feel free to re-open this bug report.
What font are you using for the Digital Clock widget, or systemwide, if you haven't changed the Digital font in the Digital Clock widget directly?
Noto Sans with 10pt size. I believe that´s the default font. Also had the same behavior on a previous Manjaro installation.
Thanks. In that case this shouldn't be happening; the time display is supposed to take up as much space as it could possible take if all digits use the widest characters. Needs investigation as to why that's not working.
I'm not able to reproduce this on git-master, using the same font settings and showing seconds in the widget. The text stays the same width through all 60 seconds of a minute. Panel height is set to 48 What height do you have that panel set to?
.
I´ve just tested it and indeed you are correct. Does not happen with panel height 48. I´m using panel height 40, there it happens. In fact, it only seems to happen on panel height 40. Not 36, 38, 42, 44. Strange...
I re-tested on git-master with a new, default panel with a height of 40, and can't reproduce it. I'm wondering if the font choice is affecting this. Do you have a manual font chosen for the digital clock? If show, what face and size? Also, can you please share a screenshot of System Settings - Fonts ? Thanks.
