Created attachment 117350 [details] Reproduction of the bug SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add a dock and change its type to "Panel" 2. Add a latte plasmoid on the left of the splitter, and some other widgets on the right of the splitter. 3. Open a lot of applications OBSERVED RESULT The icons overlap EXPECTED RESULT Maybe the widget on the left could push the rightmost widgets off the screen (but then we need a scrolling mechanism) Or whatever approach that makes sense SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.53.0 Qt Version: 5.12.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Have you enabled decrease applets when needed in Tweaks page?
(In reply to Michail Vourlakos from comment #1) > Have you enabled decrease applets when needed in Tweaks page? Oh yes that would work somehow. But the icons tend to get too small and some widgets will behave differently.

It might not be the case for hidden, hacky tweaks like manually modifying configuration files though. Just my personal, very biased opinion.

I would suggest how it works in the GNOME extension Dash-to-Dock: the overflowing icons will be hidden, but by placing the pointer at the left/right edges the content will scroll. (I'm okay with mouse wheel too).

(I'm okay with mouse wheel too). sounds ok for me... I will leave it open for some time in case someone tries to implement this... personally I am not that much interested
