Created attachment 133423 [details] Checkmark icon is too close to address bar SUMMARY Now that the address bar lives on the top bar when you click to type a location you can see the checkmark button is too close to the location bar. I believe there should be some padding to the right. Check screenshot. Maybe the location bar itself could have padding on the left and right sides so it won't be too close from buttons. That way it would make it harder to accidentally press on the bar instead of nearby buttons.

I should add why I think this change should be made: The spacing is visually jarring because there's a huge space between the right of the checkmark icon and the split button, while at the same time there's little to no space between the location bar and the checkmark icon. An argument could be made about making them closer to indicate they are related, however they still look like separate things because the check icon is neither inside the location bar nor have a color that would indicate it's different from the buttons to the right.

I didn't know it was a problem on my end. I'm also using Noto Sans 10pt and I also have the default Breeze theme. I should note my resolution is 1920x1080 and i'm not applying any kind of scaling (1x). I'm also running it using a VMWare virtual machine.
Wait. I think I've found the reason: I'm testing it now and apparently the issue is present on both Xorg and Wayland >only< when using 100% scaling. If I set the scaling for anything higher the issue is not present.
Interesting. I'm using 200%, so that's probably why I don't see it. I can reproduce the issue at 100% scale.

I noticed the spacing is different between Xorg and Wayland when using fractional scaling. I will attach the results on both Xorg and Wayland at 125%. (This is unrelated, but I wanna know if this is a known issue: I also noticed Spectacle on Wayland is showing me a smaller "secondary desktop" if I select the option to screenshot only a retangular area. That is only happening when using scaling. Is that normal?)

Created attachment 133512 [details] 125% scaling on Wayland. When using 125% scaling on Wayland the padding on the button seems more proportional.
Created attachment 133514 [details] After new update - 20 of november. Wow. This gotta be the fastest bug fix in history. 😁 I mean, not really, but while I was making some experiments I decided to update KDE just in case (last time I updated the virtual machine was when I reported the bug) and apparently it's better now. I don't know if it's looking like it's supposed to be, but it's not too close anymore at 100% scale. Apparently before updating I didn't have the double ring focus on text fields, and now I do. One thing I noticed is that scaling higher than 100% specifically on Wayland still makes the checkbox padding look bigger than Xorg.
Heh yeah that change came from Breeze itself. If you're happy with the way it looks now, we can call it fixed. :)
