Hi, & thanks for looking. I have constantly seen this on both my laptop
running Fedora KDE 4 & KDE 5, & my little old netbook running Fedora XFCE. My
laptop screen size is 15.6" 1366 x 768, & my netbook is 10.1" 1280 x 720. The
stated bug is exactly the same on both, even on XFCE which looks different.
Here are a couple of screenshots from my laptop.
