           Summary: state of matter temperature scrollbox is too narrow for
                    >999.0K
           Product: kalzium
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kalzium kde org
        ReportedBy: ld_barthel yahoo com


Version:           1.4.4 (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc-4.0 
OS:                Linux

Numerical temperature values aren't completely visible because the scrollbox is too narrow for the "9,999.0" format used.

To reproduce:
Manually enter 999 deg K in the widget. Start scrolling upward. At this point the text is already cramped within the space. Continue scrolling through 1,000.9. As you scroll,  the leading 1 is partially cut off. Use the slider widget to increase the temperature further. At larger values, the thousands of degrees is no longer visible at all without "editing" the value directly.

Since the actual selected temperature is not visible anywhere else, this represents a significant usability bug.
