Argh The problem here is the humongous button labeled "Weitere Einstellungen zum Erscheinungsbild…" I wonder if there's a way to shorten this at all. Moving to i18n for discussion there. (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #2) > The problem here is the humongous button labeled "Weitere Einstellungen zum > Erscheinungsbild…" I wonder if there's a way to shorten this at all. Moving > to i18n for discussion there. Maybe we should rename to where they link to (what they open): button "More Appearance Settings…" -> "[Set] Colors & Themes" -> German: "Farben & Designs [einstellen …]" button "More Behavior Settings…" -> "[Set] General Behavior" -> German "Allgemeines Verhalten [einstellen …]" Both would be shorter ... I'm not a native speaker, but both seem okay to me. This would however require support by the layout, because in English the [set] is at the front of the sentence, whereas in German the [einstellen] is at the end. You would need a prefix and a suffix string around the button, and you are still left with a long text. Can't we lose the “more” from “more settings” and just say “Appearance settings”. Because the button’s destination is the actual settings anyways. It doesn’t mention “Appearance” on the start page either, so the user may not even know that it belongs to the Appearance section. Hmm, that's something to consider. |

STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start System Settings OBSERVED RESULT Looks horrendous EXPECTED RESULT Looks fine SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: git master as of 2022-11-29 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Wonder if just some margins/spacing have changed, this used to be fine
