Created attachment 188217 [details] A Screenshot That Demonstrates The Low-Resolution, Elongated Button # SUMMARY The “Search the web for” button, that appears when no results exist for a search query, is elongated, at very low resolution, when many long characters are entered into the search form (whatever component it is). [^1] # STEPS TO REPRODUCE Paste “﷽”, as many times as is possible (a maximum exists). You'll likely also require a “𱁬” (at the start), to prevent any results appearing. Strangely, some do, otherwise. # OBSERVED RESULT I do not know whether the button begins to warp after a specific length, or whether it always warps, very slightly, which solely becomes noticeable at long lengths. # EXPECTED RESULT The button should not warp, nor render at a lower resolution than 100 % scale stipulates. # SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS ~~~ #!/usr/bin/env sh rpm -qi $(rpm -qf $(command -v plasma-discover)) ~~~ > ~~~ > Name : plasma-discover > Version : 6.5.4 > Release : 1.fc43 > Architecture: x86_64 > Install Date: Sat 13 Dec 2025 14:26:44 GMT > Size : 2136034 > Signature : > RSA/SHA256, Fri 12 Dec 2025 16:24:40 GMT, Key ID 829b606631645531 > Source RPM : plasma-discover-6.5.4-1.fc43.src.rpm > Build Date : Tue 09 Dec 2025 23:19:07 GMT > Build Host : buildvm-x86-21.rdu3.fedoraproject.org > Packager : Fedora Project > Vendor : Fedora Project > ~~~ ~~~ #!/usr/bin/env sh kinfo ~~~ > ~~~ > KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.4 > KDE Frameworks Version: 6.21.0 > Qt Version: 6.10.1 > Kernel Version: 6.17.12-300.fc43.x86_64 (64-bit) > Graphics Platform: Wayland > Memory: 32 GiB of RAM (30.4 GiB usable) > Graphics Processor 1: AMD Radeon RX 5700 > Graphics Processor 2: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 6-Core Processor > ~~~ # ADDITIONAL INFORMATION [^1]: https://forum.qt.io/post/835184 [^2] [^2]: I was unable to acquire more detailed information, due to https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/accerciser/-/issues/72.

Git commit ab6f5813504b71d394f82330f1433db35190358f by Christoph Wolk. Committed on 05/01/2026 at 13:35. Pushed by cwo into branch 'master'. PlaceholderMessage: handle unusually long text better PlacholderMessage has some pretty bad artifacts on some rather pathological strings: - The text and explanation are set to Text.WordWrap, so if there is a long character sequence with no (breaking) space, it will grow beyond the available space - The text on the helpfulAction button, and therefore the button as a whole, can grow without bounds None of these should ever matter in typical usage, but can be triggered if they incorporate user input (as e.g. in search fields). We can solve the first by switching to Text.Wrap - It will break at word boundaries if possible, but if not, it's better to have a slightly awkward wrap than to clip out of bounds. The second we can at least paper over by setting a Layout.maximumWidth - it's not optimal as the label will not elide, and show something from the center of the string. But it's at least less broken, and there does not seem to be a way to set button labels to elide except changing the QQC style (and in the case of desktop style, this would mean changing the QStyle).
