By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Screenshot of the bug

Sometimes, changing the style in Control Center -> Appearance & Themes -> Style will cause system try icons to jump to the upper-left corner of the screen. The icons will be piled on top of each other so that closing one will reveal the one underneath it. This happens with all visible icons for TDE applications (not the hidden icons), and does not seem to happen with non-TDE apps. In addition, this happens approximately 90% of the time.

This bug has actually existed for quite some time. If I recall, it was in the older "stable" versions of TDE. It was only recently that I figured out what causes it since I rarely change styles, and it didn't occur often enough to be more than a minor annoyance.

Sounds like there are a number of issues showing up when changing the color scheme and/or widget style.  Are these regressions from 3.5.13.x?

This particular bug has actually been present in KDE 3.x since before the existence of TDE. I started using Linux back when KDE 3.4 was still alive, and that's when I first saw this happen (though as mentioned in comment 1, I didn't know how to reproduce it until recently).

OK, thanks.  As R14 will be released in the next couple of weeks it's concerning to see all these new bug reports; I am trying to isolate regressions from 3.5.13.x for triage.

Thank you for filing these reports; we will need to address non-regression bugs after R14 release.
