Some malfunctions in the systray Cauldron Plasma 6 - QT 6 - The "mgaapplet" is not listed in the params/entries of the systray. When an udate is available, the applet does appear (and works), but when the update is finished, the applet disappears again. Even when the applet is present and you mark it "always present", it doesn't remain in the entries. - Themes choosen with the desktop lead changes with the icons in the systray. Using "Breeze" almost all icons are correct, except what we underlined up here with the "magaapplet", and also, the "netapplet" which is blur. Using "Oxygen" several original icons are missing (or blur) and replaced by unindentified ones.

Last point: right-click taskbar-Edit Mode-hover Systray (called Taskbar)-Configure-Taskbar settings-Entries-Mgaapplet offers choice of visibility. It seems to be 'when relevant' rather than 'always'. > - Themes choosen with the desktop lead changes with the icons in the systray. > Using "Breeze" almost all icons are correct, except what we underlined up > here with the "magaapplet", and also, the "netapplet" which is blur. > Using "Oxygen" several original icons are missing (or blur) and replaced by > unindentified ones. Please attach if you can screenshots showing these differences.

> It seems to be 'when relevant' rather than 'always'. "When relevant" is the behaviour when "always" is marked. It should be possible to have the icon appearing permanently into the taskbar, just as in KDE 5...
(In reply to Roger Checa from comment #2) > Created attachment 14430 [details] > taskbar icons A very refined image - a lot of work The Oxygen icons are clearly a default for the real ones presumed missing (shown correctly with Breeze). A not uncommon fault, but needs correcting. You comment the Netapplet icon as "blurred & wrong size". This is subtle beyond my perception when looking at my own equivalent icon. Let's drop that one. BTAIM can you please raise a separate bug for this icon issue, since it is quite unrelated to the Mgaapplet persistence issue. To minimise work just refer back to https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32847#c2, and title the bug something like 'missing Oxygen systray icons'. (In reply to Roger Checa from comment #3) > > It seems to be 'when relevant' rather than 'always'. > "When relevant" is the behaviour when "always" is marked. This is what I meant to express, but I was not clear... Assigning this to Plasma group.
Assignee: bugsquad => kdeSummary: Some malfunctions in the systray - Plasma 6 => mgaapplet systray icon persistence 'Always' is not honoured when set thus in Plasma 6 Systray=Taskbar settingsCC: lewyssmith => (none)
Hi, Icons are often "blur" when they are inserted with a wrong size : for example 24x24 in stead of 128x128... Also the the mgaapplet is blur when it appears. Not quite sure to understand what to declare with a new bug. Anyway done!
Hi, When working under "wayland" (in stead of "X11") 2 remarks : 1st) => The mgaapplet does appear permanently into the systray, when marked "always". => Correct behaviour (no bug). 2nd) => The blur aspect of some icons (including magaapplet) has disappeared. => correct aspect (no bug). Nevertheless some icons are still missing in the systray, under "Oxygen" theme.
Summary: mgaapplet systray icon persistence 'Always' is not honoured when set thus in Plasma 6 Systray=Taskbar settings => mgaapplet systray icon persistence 'Always' is not honoured when set thus in Plasma 6 Systray/Taskbar settings X11 only (OK Wayland)
As for 'blurring' of the magaapplet icon, comment 6 says that is no longer the case. A clarification please: Does the corrected blurring of the mgaapplet icon apply to both X11 and Wayland? It could be OK under Wayland, blurred for X11.
See Also: (none) => https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32927
Confirming : Blurring under "X11" => OK under "wayland" Plus => concerning mgaapplet : 1/ present in the systray under "wayland" => absent under "X11" 2/ neat icon under "wayland" => blurred under "X11" Other missing icons => no change under "wayland" or "X11" (reminding : oxygen)
I don't know if that's related, but I get this message when launching mgaapplet from a shell: $ mgaapplet ... Attempt to call undefined import method with arguments (":helpers" ...) via package "ugtk3" (Perhaps you forgot to load the package?) at /usr/lib/libDrakX/ugtk3.pm line 1501. In Mageia 9, this error message is not displayed and the icon is visible from the taskbar (KDE, X11), so this is a regression in Mageia 10.
