SUMMARY
When using Meta--T to edit the custom tile arrangement, and selecting to designate a tile as "floating", the sizing handles that appear do not indicate window size values... they should.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Meta+T
2. set tile as "floating"
3. try to size the tile to a specific dimension (in px).

OBSERVED RESULT
handles appear with no indication of tile size.

EXPECTED RESULT
tile size should be shown (possibly even editable) so that a floating tile can be of a specified size

Thank you for the bug report!

However Plasma 5.27.12 no longer receives updates or maintenance from KDE; active versions are 6.4 or newer. Please upgrade to an active version as soon as your distribution makes it available to you. Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one.

If you need help with Plasma 5.27.12, please contact your distribution, who bears the responsibility of providing help for older releases that are no longer receiving updates from KDE.

If you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to an active version, feel free to re-open this bug report.

i'ved changed it to "unspecified" since it apples equally to all kwin not just my plasma 5 version.
