SUMMARY *** After setting applets on a desktop multiple times I can say the current resizing system is not very convenient. I had troubles making multiple applets the same size and aligning them. I think a better grid system that lets you snap to other applets when resizing would fix this. *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add an applet to the desktop and resize it 2. Add another applet to the desktop 3. Try to resize it, so it fits the size of the other one perfectly SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Tumbleweed (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.101.0 Qt Version: 5.15.7

We already have a grid that we snap to, and IMO the grid is sparse enough that it's somewhat easy to align widgets and make them the same size already. We could maybe consider making the grid a bit more sparse to make it even easier, but I'm not sold on the idea of making snapping zones bigger than they already are when there are widgets nearby; the code dealing with widget positioning is already quite complex and I don't think this would be worth the extra complexity.
