However, I configured the panel height in my case to be 77, which already makes the icons to be pretty big and touch friendly. There is no need for the icon spacing to be set forcibly to large, other than take unnecessary screen space. Could there be a way for the icons only task manager to calculate if it really is necessary to make the icon spacing that large when the icons are already big enough for touchscreens? Or perhaps add an option to override touch mode forcing the icons only task manager to have the icon spacing set to large. 2467019 1 nate 2025-10-31 20:13:47 +0000 That's a good point. We can probably stop doing this when the panel is already thick. 2504129 2 bug-janitor 2026-03-17 23:01:02 +0000 A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/3612 2507162 3 nate 2026-03-30 21:59:22 +0000 Git commit 16016c8b992f74630182956cac285465eee7baf9 by Nate Graham.
