Bug ID: 502839
Summary: Keep Installed and Updates in side-bar with narrow
windows (or remove Home and Search)
Classification: Applications
Product: Discover
Version: 6.3.4
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: discover
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: john....@pelago.org.uk
CC: aleix...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When the Discover window is narrow enough, the sidebar disappears, to be
replaced with a hamburger menu and a bottom icon bar.
When full width, the topmost sidebar entries are:
- Search box
- Home
- Installed
- Updates
- Settings
- About
When narrow width, the topmost hamburger menu entries are:
- Home
- Search
- Settings
- About
and the bottom bar has:
- Home
- Search
- Installed
- Updates
I suggest that with narrow windows, either Installed and Updates should remain
in the hamburger menu (as well as in the bottom bar), or that Home and Search
should be removed from the hamburger menu so they are only in the bottom bar.
Or to put it another way, it seems odd that Home and Search are given special
treatment to appear in both places at once, while Installed and Updates are
not.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Discover
2. Maximise the window
3. Look at the sidebar entries
4. Make the window width narrow
5. Look at the bottom toolbar entries and the entries in the hamburger menu
OBSERVED RESULT
Notice that Home and Search appear in both places, but Installed and Updates
are only available from the bottom bar.
EXPECTED RESULT
Installed and Updates still available in hamburger menu.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20250410
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0
Kernel Version: 6.14.1-1-default (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
For context, I made the window narrow, noticed that the sidebar had
disappeared, and instinctively clicked on the hamburger button to look for
Updates (which is what I was attempting to do at the time). Because it wasn't
in the hamburger menu I thought it was a bug, especially as at first glance all
the other entries were there (I didn't immediately notice that Installed also
wasn't in the hamburger menu, probably because I never go into that section)!
It took a few seconds to realise Updates had been moved to the bottom bar. It
just seemed odd to not find Updates in the hamburger menu when Home and Search
were still there. Thanks for reading all this!
