Moin, just a sidenote, it's caused by the KSqueezedTextLabel inside the statusbar. changing statusBar()->addWidget( m_status_text, 1 ); to statusBar()->addWidget( m_status_text, 0 ); fixes it but of course also removes the stretch. I assume it's a bug in KSqueezedTextLabel because it does not happen with KDE 3.2.
