yep, I wanted a way the ratio I see in my computer (settings width to settings height) to be the same across different computers and different screen resolutions. So you dont like it? :)

(In reply to trmdi from comment #0) > Before: https://i.imgur.com/XYYuAGO.png sorry but this is awful, no symmetry at all... only thing I could accept is if the height could become smaller in order for the width also to follow. I will work on it but the symmetry in very important.
btw both before and after have an issue... the bottom buttons shouldnt be placed there, they should be placed exactly at the bottom edge of the of the settings window... this is how settings window should look: https://imgur.com/iYS49ca

I just want mine looks like that. Yes, mine is too high. It need some adjustment.
Git commit a5a4b876dee8268083f7e186f084e6662ea5bddb by Michail Vourlakos. Committed on 01/08/2018 at 14:31. Pushed by mvourlakos into branch 'master'. improve dock settings windows geometry calculation --the dock settings window calculations should not look different between different font settings/geometries/screens. One way to overcome that issue is by using the font.height to calculate the settings height, that is 37chars for now and the width to be calculated in accordance with that height. There are some down limits for both, height shouldnt overcome screens height and shouldnt go under 400px and the width can not be less than 200px M +6 -8 shell/package/contents/configuration/LatteDockConfiguration.qml https://commits.kde.org/latte-dock/a5a4b876dee8268083f7e186f084e6662ea5bddb
Can you please show me how your settings window looks with last commit?
(In reply to Michail Vourlakos from comment #7) > Can you please show me how your settings window looks with last commit? The difference is very slight: https://i.imgur.com/86Vjcd5.png I think the width (and maybe the height) is still a bit too wide.

2. Can you show me a screenshot of Behavior Tab? the Tasks Tab has space in it by the short texts in the checkboxes... from your screenshot I can see also two issues resolved: a. the settings window touches exactly the dock edge b. the action buttons (add/remove/close) are exactly where they should be

(In reply to trmdi from comment #11) > 1. My font config: https://i.imgur.com/PntrhnC.png > 2. A screenshot of Behavior Tab: https://i.imgur.com/NeuPAcE.png before playing more with it, I would propose to play also with your font settings, we might be able to improve them, if you dont like them of course you can change them afterwards... :) 1. Find the correct DPI setting for your screen, you can use https://www.sven.de/dpi/ for this. You set your screen resolution and how big is your screen at inches e.g. 15.6 and that provides a PPI value which is the DPI we are searching 2. Go to your Font settings and: A. Set everything to font size 12 B. Enable "Use anti-aliasing" C. Disable "Exclude range from anti-aliasing" D. Choose "Vertical RGB" E. Choose "Slight" F. Enable Force Fonts DPI G. Write the PPI you found at previous site for the DPI record at integer value e.g. 109.27 = 109 etc etc.
3. You need to restart an application in order to check out the new font settings how good are they... These settings provide me also fantastic anti-aliasing for LibreOffice case

This commit gives the user the freedom to scale the size of the dock settings window. In order to do that you can use Meta+ScrollWheel at the free areas of the dock settings window for increasing/decreasing the settings window size scale.
