Extras Sidebar

The "Extras"-Sidebar has no icon-only view, very large padding and no way to further narrow the sidebar so that there is a huge waste of space. See attachment.

I would like to see an icon-only sidebar if possible.

This is typically a problem with i18n. All icon item strings in this view come from menu and must be translated shortly. 

Try to switch in English to see the difference.

Note : i'm not agree to be able to switch the view in icon only mode. The view must be explicit.

Indeed this is better if I switch to english.

Alternatively you can edit the digikamrc:

[Album Settings]
Sidebar Title Style=0

This option to change behavior exist in Setup-> Misc as "Sidebar tab title" I close the bug now.
