Re: panel resize?

I'm not the original poster, but I can comment on this as well. If a bug report has been opened on this, give me the ID and I'll add these there -- I couldn't find one that applied to the KDE4 issue.

Background:
Kubuntu 8.04 with the latest (May-6) updates applied. (kde4-4.0.3 I believe)

When I right-click on the panel (kicker?) and choose the size to be "Tiny" there are two quickly noticeable effects (aside from the desired thin panel):
1: The default "Digital Clock" on the right side is too big and only the upper half of the time is displayed. A work-around is to enable the "Show date" on the clock which just shrinks the time font a bit and moves it higher. (But you can't actually see the date so it's not a fix.)
2: When I click on the "K" menu, it isn't right above the panel, rather it is shoved to the top of the screen.

I'll attach a screen shot with annotations showing these errors.
