Comparism Win Kubuntu & Optimized

Approximately 8 characters from a filename are displayed, which makes folderview almost unusable. 

- Alot of space is wasted above, below and next to a desktop symbol item. 
- Table grid layout is unlogic (symbol item has more height instead of more width)
- Renaming a long filename is a mess (no bigger text box is shown that displays the whole filename, while navigating with the mouse within the rename text box a selection is made on the desktop)

Comparism & detailed misaligned pixels displayed in the screenshot.

Overall FV should be verified in terms of visibility, usability & screen space efficiency.

Missing version information.

Sry, tested on
Kubuntu 17.04, Plamsa 5.9.4, Frameworks 5.31.0
Windows 7

But it's the same with KDE Neon & Plasma 5.9.95.

BTW: measurements were taken with smybol size small medium (right click on desktop -> Icons -> Icon size -> small medium).

But if you look at the screenshot, those issues appear with every size.

Version specified.

1. Renaming box is shifted to the right side compared to the file icon - but it seems normal size (i may create a separate issue with screenshots if needed).
2. There may be full file name representation upon the file selection.
3. Not noticed mouse jumps while dragging file over the desktop.
