Bug ID: 362417
Summary: Spacer in panels are very difficult to handle (move
around and resize)
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.3.0
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Panel
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: stu109...@mail.uni-kiel.de
Hi,
when editing a panel (e.g. the bottom bar with the system tray. I think it is
called panel) spacers are displayed only if the mouse is over them. This makes
it hard to see where they are. IMO spacers should be clearly visible in edit
mode, without hovering.
Furthermore they are super difficult to position and resize. This is because
the left and right handles are too big. They often overlap so if I want to
increase its size to the left I can easily click the rith handle by accident.
And because the movement is implemented by dragging the middle of the spacer,
it is (nearly) impossible to move it around. Small spacers already overlap
their left/right handles and thus there is no middle to drag.
This makes it irritating to add small spacers e.g. between multimedia apps and
office apps in a panel.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add several small spacers to a panel
2. Try to align them evenly
3. Try to move them between specific applications
4. Feel the annoyance :)
