Description apache 2016-06-03 06:24:02 UTC

I reported a bug Bug 349411 - Horizontal and vertical task buttons should have consistent margin sizes 
but after a year is was closed. My bug was not about Breeze but about Task manager settings and this one is about that. Don't force user to change themes. Most users don't have skills to do it. 

Please read 
Size of Task Manager Icons and System Tray Icons 
https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=285&t=124799

Please make options like in Smooth task fork 
https://bitbucket.org/flupp/smooth-tasks-fork
or in Icon tasks by Craig Drummond 
http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Icon+Tasks?content=144808

flupp doesn't want to do a version for Plasma 5
https://bitbucket.org/flupp/smooth-tasks-fork/issues/43/compile-against-kde5-fails
neither Craig Drummond
http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Icon+Tasks?content=144808
(nor response to user question about version for Plasma 5)

I reported also a wishlist bug for regular Task manager, as different users prefer one or the other
Bug 363878 - option to make icons bigger 


Reproducible: Always

Icon tasks manager is the same applet internally, marking as duplicate (since this bug report is just copy paste of the other one anyway)

I now what I did and I reported two separate bus intentionally, not  just copy paste. Maybe internally but for users it is a separate widget. some users prefer to use regular some icons only. I don't want to end up with regular "task manager" with no such options. 

By previous bug Bug 349411 I reported for task manager and it was changed to Breeze, and this ended up as no options for users. So please, don't mess up this time. 
Unmark duplicate, please.
