Re: What needs to improve in KDE 4?
I was thinking about opening a new thread to talk about the device notifier, but i found this message so i will do it here.
I think there is something wrong with this plasmoid, there is a bug report talking about it but it's being ignored for now.

As you see in this picture:

the text stands out together with the button to unmount the device, but
when it is on the panel this does not happen, making it imposible to
unmount the device as you see in this other picture:

At the beginning, i thougth that the problem was only related with
localication languages, but after some tests, now i have another
conclusion.
I think that the position of the button, depends not only on the size of the plasmoid, because when the plasmoid is smaller than the lengh of the text of the mainlabel, the button is alligned right and bellow the last letter of the text
This also happens even when it's in english with low resolutions and/or too big font sizes. I've been reading the code of the plasmoid trying to underestand it in order to learn how to make some changes to make the button appear always inside the plasmoid no matter how long the length of the text in the "m_mainlabel" is, however i am a newbie in this matters. The only thing i found is this:
"category->setAlignment(Qt::AlignRight);"
by the way why AlignRight? if you see the first picture i think that the label with the description of the device "Volumen de almacenamiento" aligned right is not the best option.
By now, i have solved "my" problem by changing the spanish translation but i don't think that's an elegant solution:

as you see, when the text is short enough this problem does not appear.
cheers!
