Description mcarans 2023-02-01 01:20:03 UTC 
SUMMARY
I am not able to adjust the size of widgets in the panel.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enlarge panel (eg. mine on right side of screen is 192px)
2. Add widget eg. System Monitor to panel
3. Try to find a way to resize it

OBSERVED RESULT
No way to resize


EXPECTED RESULT
Ability to resize

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 22.10
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.5
KDE Frameworks Version:  5.101.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
A similar issue from 3 years ago says: "The systemmonitor widget has been rewritten from scratch for 5.19, tough some of those issues are still valid, this should probably be closed and reopen for the new version with the issues that still apply" (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420086#c3). Therefore I am creating this new issue as the problem persists.

Panel widgets in general aren't resizable; this is by design.
