Reference: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=278765 Suggested Fixes: * Easy: if compositing is not active (!KWindowSystem::compsitingActive()) then the time out should not be zero (it should probably not be changed at all, in fact). if compositing is active, it should be a smaller number (like 50ms or something) to prevent absolutely INSTANT shows. * Moderate: if the tooltip is going to overlap a popup applet's dialog, the tooltip should be move away from it (or supressed?) Where to start: kde-workspace/plasma/desktop/applets/tasks grep for ToolTipContent Issue: Columns in the system tray dialog config dialog's Entries page should be equal Reference: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=241277 Suggested Fixes: the columns should be set to be equal size. Qt's list view class must have something for this :) Where to start: kde-workspace/plasma/generic/applets/systemtray look for the the config UI files and their setup in createConfigurationInterface Issue: Launchers in Tasks widget disappear after use Reference: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=278843 Suggested fixes: either libtaskmanager or the tasks widget are not identifying the launcher icon as being available after closing the last window. which means something like the icon launcher entry is being lost or misidentified. my guess is "misidentified" because they show up on first start, but after the app window is shown and then closed, the launcher doesn't come back .. until next start. Where to start: kde-workspace/libs/taskmanager/ make sure checkLauncherVisibility in groupmanager.cpp is being called and is working properly. easy enough with some kDebug statements and running `plasmoidviewer tasks` to test. depending on what that turns up, we can go from there. -- Aaron J.
