<p>There is a change to C++ backend -- button indexes -10 and lower mean a drop down menu which contains some suffix of menubar items -- -10 contains them all, -11 all without first one and so on.</p>
<p>The tricky part is to determine which items to hide -- current approach is to draw all at first and then iterate through them and hide ones too much on right (<tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">fixOverflow</tt> function). Property <tt style="background: #ebebeb; font-size: 13px;">effectiveWidth</tt> calculates how much space we can use and is only correct when buttons are on right and should not be overlapped by the menu. (Should be resolved after <a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D11071" style="background-color: #e7e7e7;

<p>If the backend changes and hiding logic are considered sane, it might be worth porting to Global Menu applet (there the computation of available space would be much simplier).</p>
<p>This patch was only tested on top of <a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D11071" style="background-color: #e7e7e7;
