Description Jonathan Chun 2020-04-03 04:18:00 UTC

SUMMARY
https://youtu.be/8sEE2p9yCxw?t=82
See this feature video at 1:22. The "Width" margins are set fairly high at 13%, but if you look at the side panel, the widgets are expanding to fill the entire width of the panel. When the panel is small enough so that only icons display, this does not happen.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a panel
2. Size panel to something large. >250px or so so that widgets display rather than just the icon
3. Add a widget to the panel

OBSERVED RESULT
- Widget fully expands width with 0 margins

EXPECTED RESULT
- Widget should have margins and be kept inside the panel based on the setting.

Yep these are called thickness margins, plasma applets are responsible to provide them properly. All applets are taking up the entire thickness otherwise many things break with pkasma applets
