Bug ID: 358418 Summary: Alignment of widgets to grid can prevent optimal sizes and alignments for some widgets. Product: plasmashell Version: 5.5.3 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: NOR Component: Desktop Dashboard Assignee: notm...@gmail.com Reporter: cher...@aip.de CC: bhus...@gmail.com When dragging and resizing widgets they snap to a grid. In some cases this prevents them to take an optimal size or an optimal position. I provide 2 examples that I encountered: 1. http://imgur.com/a/Zd1Qm - Here I would like to place the weather widget right below the clock, but only the two positions that can be seen in the screenshot are possible due to the grid. 2. http://imgur.com/V75kBsd - Here I have 4 elements in the folder view - in principle I would like to make the vertical size slightly larger so that the unnecessary vertical scrollbar disappears, but the grid prevents me from this. Reproducible: Always A possible workaround I know that in `plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.desktopcontainment/contents/ui/main.qml` the grid size can be made smaller - then a better placement is possible, but it also gets significantly slower if I want pixel perfect placement. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
