Description Jens Reuterberg 2016-07-09 04:27:43 UTC
The digital clock calendar is awesome but it is also very very misaligned due to width changes between the letter/numbers practical width and font width.
This causes the effect that it looks extremely misaligned even though the two parts of the calendar are perfectly aligned.
(Saturday - compared to July for example appear to be on entirely different top lines but the "saturday" is connected to the "09" which due to the size of the font has a rather massive padding and pushes "saturday" down)

Similarly the "no events today" sign is based on the initial size and placement of the date number which makes it in turn misaligned with the right hand part of the calendar

[screenshot in link]

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Calendar

Actual Results:  
Alignment appear wrong

Expected Results:  
Alignment should not appear wrong - one method to achieve this is to base the placement of "july" in the actual calendar bit on the right to be linked to the top edge of the 09 as well, which in this case would sadly create a rather large padding on top. 
But by decreasing the font size of the "09" this could be minimized.

The "no events today" should be placed centred in the open area of the calendar daily planner from bottom row of date to bottom of widget. Or if possible centered horisontally, but aligned with middle bar of the actual calendar on the right.

The layout of this popup was re-done in Plasma 5.20. It looks okay now to my eye. Is it okay for you too?
