Bug ID: 476189 Summary: Quote in window title cuts title too early in task manager Classification: Plasma Product: plasmashell Version: 5.27.8 Platform: Debian testing OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Task Manager and Icons-Only Task Manager Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: gaetan.gilb...@skyskimmer.net CC: qydwhotm...@gmail.com Target Milestone: 1.0 Created attachment 162612 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=162612&action=edit screenshot of the bug SUMMARY In some cases (not clear what the complete conditions are), when a window title "foo bar's bar" does not fit in the task manager such that it should get shortened as "foo bar..." I instead see just "foo". Encountered in the wild on https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/a-young-girls-game-of-thrones.1095557/ STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Make a window whose title starts with "A Young Girl's Game" (eg by entering a directory with this name in a shell in konsole) 2. Open enough windows to crowd the task manager (unset window grouping to make this easier) (10 windows including the one with the tested title works for me, but this probably depends on screen resolution, font settings, and how much stuff is in the system tray etc) 3. Observe the bug OBSERVED RESULT Window title is cut off earlier than it should be, leaving noticeable blank space (see attached file bad.png) EXPECTED RESULT Window title should be cut off later (see attached file good.png, produced by replacing the ' with a - in the window title) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.107.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
