Bug ID: 496226
Summary: Overhaul how the edit mode looks
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.2.3
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Edit Mode
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: filip.kend...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Current Edit Mode is great, but I would like to suggest a change: Move the
panel and panel settings inside the desktop preview.
Reasons for the change:
1. If a user has a small panel, you can see the issue with the size of the
desktop in the attached SS
2. If a user is using a verbose language like German, you can see the issue
with the size of the desktop in the attached SS. Small desktop and double row
of top pane. This way, it should always be in 1 row (at least in a lot fewer
cases it would need to be in 2 rows, for German it works up to 200% scale on 4k
monitor). It can be moved outside of desktop preview to the top of the monitor
to gain even more space.
3. There would be less shifting of desktop around (Only when widgets menu is
opened/closed). As it is now, when user opens panel settings, desktop moves,
when user changes panel position desktop moves, etc... It would be more
efficient and current animations are not super smooth (at least on my PC)
4. Panel is part of the desktop so it logically makes sense for it to be
displayed on the desktop preview rather than outside of it
