This is not a bug, but it was the only way I found to get in touch, I found
this link in the comments on the Latte Dock page on the KDE Store, if you have
a more suitable place, please inform.

Hello Psifidotos, first of all I would like to congratulate and thank you for
one of your best works, which is the Latte Dock, the Swiss army knife of the
docks!

Plasma with Latte Dock is more beautiful, flexible, productive and functional,
with it you can create the main layouts of the most famous operating systems,
as well as create unique and original layouts!

A layout that is very successful on the internet is the video "Re-imagining the
Windows Experience" (https://youtu.be/8kmyWVnmjwQ), what strikes me the most is
its modular panel, I would love to be able To do this with the Latte Dock, I
thought that maybe you can create a new type of separator, this one with the
objective of separating the background of the dock, but still being a single
dock.

I'm not a programmer, so I apologize for my reasoning about how I think the
delimitation of the dock's background works.

The Plasma theme uses an SVG file, the background is a rectangle made up of a
total of 9 parts, treating these as columns, we have 3 parts composing the left
side column, 3 parts for the central and 3 parts for the column right side, to
draw the left side of the dock, Latte should consider doing this on the left
side of the first applet of the dock, then filling the entire dock with the
center column and finishing by drawing the right side on the right side of the
last applet .

When creating this new tab, it would have the function of informing Latte that
at the point where it is in the dock, when drawing the background, the left of
the separator, it would draw the right side of the background and the right of
the separator would draw the left side.

It would be interesting if the user could define the width of the separator
(px), I believe that for this you can use the logic of your applet "Latte
Spacer".

Thanks for your attention, have a great day.
