Hi, 

this list is for discussion about user interface decisions affecting usability. 
The issues you report seem to me more like bug reports or whishlist items. 
Please go over to 

http://bugs.kde.org

and report them there (or look if someone already reported them. For example 

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=169130

Best wishes, 

Benno.

|

| the left or right side.
|
| 3) Certain fonts chosen for the digital clock, cause the panel to wrap
| around to the top of the window from the bottom. Quite bizarre. Trying to
| reduce the real estate of the panel causes graphic display issues (white
| bar underneath, too tiny icons, too huge icons, etc).
|
| 4) Hiding the toolbars and menubar in the new KRDC interface, leaves no
| way to restore them, unless this is in some unknown FAQ somewhere, and the
| documentation for KRDC doesnt' even cover this.
