Hi, Good day all KDE community, Before I could resize the panel plasmoids, for example the app launcher, but what affects me the most is not being able to resize the Networks window, when pressing "details" it is impossible to see the IPs because the size of the window is very small ...

before I could see full 192.168.1.100
Now I can only see:
192.168...
192.168...
192.168...

i need join in konsole and write "ip a" to see my ip...

Which exact widget is this about and which exact Plasma version and distribution do you use?


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

KDE neon 5.18.3
KF 5.68.0
Qt 5.14.1

All versions of Plasma allowed me to resize the bar widgets, pressing alt + right click, but since the last LTS plasma 5.18 update I can't do it. I am 100% sure it is a bug in this new version, any way to fix it?

Interesting. With 5.17.5, nothing appears to allow you move or resize widgets. However, with 5.18.3, if you right-click and select Customize Layout... and then to can move and resize a widget. Right-clicking again, and there is now a Finish Customize Layout menu entry for the widget. There is also a Customize Layout.. menu entry when right-clicking on the Desktop. These menu selections are not present in 5.17.5.

Ah, you can also get to this menu by clicking on the Widget and entering Alt+D, E. And this also works on 5.17.5, though there doesn't seem to be any way to turn it off except by doing a Lock Widgets.

I sort of remember this being easier to do with previous versions (or maybe I'm thinking of KDE 4). In any case, it looks like that have been making changes in this area.


Currently running KDE Neon 5.22.5 and 5.19.4 (with Windows 10 in a VM); migrated from Linux Mint 17.3

Look, I don't want to resize a widget from the desktop, else from the panel ... look at my ip addresses.

alt + click = move windows (works)

alt + right click = resize window (it doesn't work, but it did before plasma 5.18)
