Done, https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359902

> Can you try from QML? Plasmoid.configurationRequired: true; 

Results in applet not being loaded due to error on loading QML file: Cannot assign to \
non-existent property "configurationRequired"

Also no real hits on \
https://lxr.kde.org/search?_filestring=&_string=configurationRequired

Filed as minor bug in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359906

> Try with Layout.minimumWidth and/or preferredWidth.

Tried with that, seems things are working slightly better now.

> Try setting the height to theme.mSize(yourlabel.font) (or so)

Tried something with that, please test.

I seem to miss what you mean here :) What exactly is the `elementId` here and how \
would that work?

Reason is that some defaults are based on the QLocale().measurementSystem with the \
existing code (e.g. Celsius vs. Fahrrenheit), and I could not see a way to do this \
with main.xml. Happy to change to main.xml as an improvement later, if possible.

As also noted in the email \
https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/plasma-devel/2016-February/049824.html (which might \
have been missed due to all ml traffic).

There is a BusyIndicator now next to the search button (following the old UI), for \
the placeholder "somespinningwheel". So that part should be covered (well, just that \
noaa dataengine never seems to return results currently, so the BusyIndicator spins \
and spins...)

Picked up (you surely meant Qt.rgba())

That seems to work. Added with a note.

I still need to grasp more things obviously to understand when things are \
evaluated/processed and when not, given the Layout property and its properties are \
only defined on the fullRepresentation Item (QQ beginner still :) ). In any case, \
switched code to base min/preferred sizes on units.gridUnit, so this issue fixed.

think abusing the ComboBox for the results is a terrible idea and it always was. Can \
we do better than that, like a search input and then a TableView of results below or \
something like that?</p></pre>  </blockquote>

that the approach is rather "interesting" and should be revisited by UI experts. As \
said, for now concentrated on porting the existing applet and would like to postpone \
this to after the applet is ported as it is. Okay to drop this for this \
review?</p></pre>  </blockquote>

UI), for the placeholder "somespinningwheel". So that part should be covered (well, \
just that noaa dataengine never seems to return results currently, so the \
BusyIndicator spins and spins...)</p></pre> <br />

"problem" is that the fullRepresentation is created on demand (if you expand the \
popup for the first time or it becomes large enough), so you cannot really access it \
from outside and/or know that in advance. There's a also a switchWidth/height \
property you can use to tell it when to collapse to compactRepresentation.</p></pre>  \

evaluated/processed and when not, given the Layout property and its properties are \
only defined on the fullRepresentation Item (QQ beginner still :) ). In any case, \
switched code to base min/preferred sizes on units.gridUnit, so this issue \
fixed.</p></pre> <br />
