SUMMARY For my eye, the Margins Separator widget wastes way too much space. There used to be a Plasma 4 extention named QuickLauncher which created an area of quicklaunch icons. This functionality can we be emulated with Margins Separators but it creates unnecessary spacing. I would like to be able to adjust that.

Will be fixed with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/850.
Git commit f4e032087a652ca61ec7dfe4d1b5f1725c150d53 by Nate Graham, on behalf of Tanbir Jishan. Committed on 29/03/2022 at 01:17. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. applets/margins-separator: make smaller normally, and more visible in Edit mode Margin separator by default has a large width which may not be desirable always and it is also not directly related to its core functionality. Now it takes up only 1px of space (the minimum amount) outside of Edit Mode, but expands and becomes more visually obvious in Edit Mode.
