Bug ID: 418151
Summary: Auto-Size Left Pane Wider Than Longest Text
Product: kinfocenter
Version: 5.16.5
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: KInfoCenter Viewer
Assignee: hubn...@gmail.com
Reporter: launch...@startport.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
When kinfocenter launches, the left page is too narrow to display the entirety
of all the phrases listed in its left pane. The user can drag the left pane
wider, but the very next time kinfocenter is launched, it resorts back to a
left-pane-width that's more narrow than the phrases it contains.

Keeping in mind, that KDE users can set their font-sizes to be much larger than
the 10pt font you get from a fresh installation of Kubuntu. So, the larger the
font-size-setting, the more truncation of letters that result from this left
pane being too narrow.
Therefore, I propose that each time kinfocenter launches, it should take the
user's font-size into consideration, and auto-size the left pane to a size
that's wide enough to show all phrases in their entirety.
