It's a pretty superficial solution because, unlike in 3.5, the user doesn't have the full width of the panel (minus the clock and tray in the corner) to arrange the remaining icons as seen fit. Instead, he has to manually fiddle with spacers whenever he wants to leave some room between widgets.
Honestly, I don't see a single reason why clock and systray need to auto-expand in width, but it sounds like I should file a bug with kde.org and see their response. -- System tray and clock widgets should not expand beyond what's needed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/455152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase-workspace in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
