           Summary: large unusable area in window menu
           Product: kwin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kwin@kde.org
        ReportedBy: bugs.kde.org@yknott.cjb.net


Version:           kde 4.3 rc1 (4.2.95) (using KDE 4.2.90)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

using kde 4.2.95 (kde 4.3 rc1) kubuntu packages

I am seeing different effects from the following two ways of accessing the
window menu. Other than having expected the same results, it seems there is a
bug when accessed through the one method.

steps to reproduce:
1 - open a program, konqueror for example
method a)
2a - either click the "menu" button (usually the button to the far left on the
title bar of the application) or
right mouse click on konqueror's title bar

the 'window menu' with to desktop, resize, move, and so on appears

the arrows for 'to desktop' and 'advanced' are flush with the right-hand side
of the window

moving the mouse pointer along the horizontal left or right from 'to desktop'
results in the menu expanding, showing the other desktop options (all, desktop
1, desktop 2)

* this is the expected behavior *

method b)
2b - right mouse click on the place setting for konqueror in the task manager 

the same window menu appears (to desktop, move, resize, ...) with all of the
same options as in method a save 'configure window behavior ...'

but in this window, the arrows for 'to desktop' and 'advanced' are not flush to
the right-hand side of the window 
and
the mouse pointer needs to be placed between the left-hand side of the window
and the displayed arrow in order for the menu to expand. placing the mouse
pointer to the right of the arrow, between the arrow and the right-hand side
border does not result in the menu being expanded.

* this is the unexpected behavior *


the two windows (the one from method a and the one from method b) appear to be
the same size
and
in both cases the arrows indicating hidden submenus appear to be placed the
same distance to the right after the longest line of text


in method a, that longest line is
'configure window behavior...'

and
in method b, the longest line is
'to desktop' 
(actually on mine there is a greyed out entry 'to current desktop' which is
longer than 'to desktop')
