Bug ID: 441510
Summary: System Monitor Sensor Widget: Horizontal Bars Not
Functional For Anything Requiring Data Limits To Be
Set
Product: kdeplasma-addons
Version: 5.22.4
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: adamska...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The 'System Monitor Sensor' Widget has a problem with it's 'horizontal bars'
display style. It's essentially useless if you need to monitor something like
temperature for instance, because you can't set limits of the data. It will
automatically choose it's own data range and it doesn't do a very good job at
this. My CPU temp sensor just shows the bar 'maxed out' regardless of what it's
temperature is. Basically it's upper data range is just whatever the current
temp is for some reason. And my GPU temp sensor seems to display a range that
doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It's idle temps are 2/3 of the way full on
the bar and they're well within normal temp ranges.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set-up horizontal bars display style in System Monitor Sensor widget with a
couple temp sensors.
OBSERVED RESULT
Notice that you can't gather any useful data from it without expanding the
widget and reading the actual values.
EXPECTED RESULT
It should either be better at guessing automatic data ranges for something like
temperature sensors or even better, allow the same setup that 'Bar Chart'
display style uses and allow you to set your own data ranges, after all it's
practically the same display style except horizontal.
