  • It looks like the png is getting word wrapped. Line spacing is so large that the png on the second line is getting pushed into the space of the icon below, and the icon below is given a higher Z value, so it goes over it. The different font has a different letter width and can influence the line spacing by being taller than the original font.

    See if you can find an option to reduce line spacing or an option to increase icon spacing (vertical or horizontal). I would expect these to be advanced settings though. Iirc, most Linux desktops don’t use ellipses on long names, like some other operating systems (macOS iirc).

    Yes. I’m not sure what you think makes you bad at writing bug reports, but here are tips I give to everyone (my day job involves working with bug reports).

    Nominally, a decent bug report should have:

    • the steps that got you the bug
    • whether you can reproduce the bug
    • what you expected to happen instead of the bug

    Doing any of these things makes bug reports so much more actionable. You can do it. I believe in you!

    Edit: Including a contact method so the software developer can have a conversation with you can also be helpful but not strictly required. Some bug reporting methods do this implicitly, like email bug reports and GitHub issues.
