            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

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.
