No problem, thanks for all your work all these years, after all that's why it's open source and nor some close source crap so that people can contribute. Besides it was interesting debugging it anyway, learned a lot of things and KDE code is pretty simple and clean, it's readable by human beings as opposed to some other c++ code I've seen which scared me. > does the attached patch help when applied to kde-workspace? I'm not sure, it's not that easy to test right now as I've also fixed that theme that cause the issue and there's also some kind of caching involved but I'm almost 100% sure that the patch you suggest will fix it. I've put in attached patch and it was good with this broken theme : http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Glassified?content=81388 but I've heard reports that Androbit and probably others cause this bug too. I'm testing for width() and height() but isNull is probably better and should work the same. In the long run though I think maybe some kind of theme validation or something along those lines should be implemented, I'm not really sure what the consequences of having a theme that's missing these or other elements are. > -- > Aaron Seigo > _______________________________________________ > Plasma-devel mailing list > Plasma-devel@kde.org > https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel >
