Description Ural 2017-03-24 19:52:51 UTC

Hello. I was using cairo-dock and was happy. But after some time I found I don't need it's features. And created a panel with icon-only task manager for every of four monitors. 
I miss the centered icons, like it was on cairo-dock. 
Please add a checkbox to center all icons. 
Thanks.

Just center the panel.

I tried before. I just tried to do it again, and it worked only on one (default) of my 4 monitors and panels. 
I configured 4 panels to be centered and maximized, only one panel did it on default monitor.

After reboot, default monitor's panel is not centered anymore.
So issue remains, icon-only task manager is arranged left on 4 monitors, with every panel being centered.

Hi. Anything on this? It is very unusable, when screen is big. I want my panel to be centered, as it was designed. 
Thanks!

Plasma 5.10.5, still the same. Never have centered icon-only task manager on any monitor. Please fix, it is easy, when you know where to fix. Thanks

> I configured 4 panels to be centered and maximized

If you maximize the panel, it cannot appear centered, but will span the complete width. You can resize the panel with the small arrows that appear on the edges when configuring the panel.

This is now possible by adding a flexible spacer item to the Panel on both sides of the Task Manager or Icons-Only Task Manager.
