The same happens here. But it works with sizes bellow 853x533.

I tried fixing the bug. But after hours all I could come was this hack. I don't think its a proper solution. I removed launcher->adjustSize() and put launcher->resize(launcher->sizeHint()) instead. It is working as intended now.

~/kde/src/KDE/kdebase/workspace/plasma/applets/kickoff$ svn diff

     launcher = new Kickoff::Launcher(q);
     launcher->setWindowFlags(launcher->windowFlags()|Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint|Qt::Popup);
     launcher->setAutoHide(true);
-    launcher->adjustSize();
+    //launcher->adjustSize();
+    launcher->resize(launcher->sizeHint());
     QObject::connect(launcher, SIGNAL(aboutToHide()), icon, SLOT(setUnpressed()));
     QObject::connect(launcher, SIGNAL(configNeedsSaving()), q, SIGNAL(configNeedsSaving()));
 }


This is the first time i tried fixing a bug and the first time I looked at "real" C++ code(looks very different from the books, i didn't get the d pointers to a class called Private). All QT knowledge I've got is from the first six chapters C++GUI Programming.

For some reason sizeHint is ignored above cretain size. I tried changing sizepolicy and other things but nothing worked. In which situations sizehint is ignored? And is sizehint overload implemented correctly? Is the above solution acceptable?
