KDE Digital Clock Applet Calendar Missing Months

When checking the calendar inside of the Digital Clock Applet on one of my KDE panels I noticed that it was not showing me every month. At first I thought maybe my mouse scrolling was acting up, but no, it skips months using the “next month” and “previous month” buttons in the applet.
I had someone I know running KDE on Arch and they did not have the issue.
I did a screen recording of this and put it on YouTube to share. Sorry that it comes up as a short, that’s just because of the video length and aspect ratio.

Supposedly fixed in KDE Plasma 6.1.

Ah, this wasn’t coming up when I did the search before posting (both internet search and forum search), but that’s probably just due to keyword usage.

Odd. Just checked mine and selecting “Days” switches months, “Months” switches years and “Years” switches decades. Looks like a fairly minor bug; hope it is indeed fixed with the next update (or soon).

I’ll also just add that this issue was not present on a few craptops I have. Not prior to the updates yesterday nor after. Not before or after the kernel update as well. Might be because they are running Wayland instead of X11, but I’m not sure. I’ll wait and find out. Luckily it is minor enough to work around.

I suspect so, because I just checked and had no such issues on mt x11…

Wayland now works for me after the latest driver update so I gave it a try and don’t have the issue in Wayland.
At this point since Wayland seems to be working without issue (prior to driver update a bunch of KDE core stuff wouldn’t load) I’ll likely just be staying in Wayland and not checking back on X11 to see if the calendar issue is still there or not.

Oddly enough. I am on Wayland and haven’t tested x11 to check. glad that it worked.
