SUMMARY The Application Launcher (start menu) icon is weirdly padded from the left side when using the floating panel and a fullscreen app. When not using a floating panel, the icon is centered with no issues. The appearance of the "squashed" panel and the completely non-floating panel should in my opinion be consistent. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Default KDE 6 settings 2. Maximize any application OBSERVED RESULT Application Launcher icon is padded from the left side as opposed to the non-floating panel. EXPECTED RESULT Launcher icon should have the same padding as disabling floating panel. (No padding)
I think this might be intentional, but can you attach a screenshot of the issue so I can be sure?

I believe the bug is the launcher icon padding discrepancy between floating fullscreen and not floating. As you can see, the fullscreen floating panel has way more padding from the left side. I also included a floating non-fullscreen screenshot, which behaves correctly in my opinion (Same as the not floating panel).
I can confirm this is intentional. The reasoning is that we only want to translate the icons within the panel downwards during a de-float animation, to avoid any clickable areas to move away from underneath the mouse cursor, or any resizing causing visual glitches. Thus, the un-floated panel kickoff icon has to have the same left-padding to the monitor side compared to when it's floating.
