Setting the width of KRunner

Where did you get that from?

It wasn’t merged because the better way to implement this is with org.kde.plasma.core.Dialog, but back then I lacked the libplasma knowledge to do that.

I didn’t understand quite correctly:

It’s a new feature for Plasma 5.26. Currently it only works on Wayland and is broken on X11. But it’s the way we should make the KRunner window resizable.
From:
[KRunner] UI to configure new runnerWidth property (!1057) · Merge requests · Plasma / Plasma Desktop · GitLab

Ah. Nate is saying that the functionality involving Plasma Dialogs being resizable had an X11-specific bug back then. I didn’t even account for that :smiley:

So nowadays everthing seem so promising to finally change krunner for better.

Yes, this is another of the recurring discussions - not a fresh issue and one that’s pinned to the whiteboard, so I fully expect eventually to have the ability to set krunner to auto-resize if lines are too long, or be flexible as with the resizable menu (drag to set the new size which is permanent).

But it’s hard not to be impatient.
