KDE neon Unstable, latest master, tr_TR locale.

See screenshot, there is no apparent internal padding.

The problem rather here is, the drop-down menu takes a lot of space, which seems a bit redundant.

The padding actually looks normal to me — or at least expected for a QtWidgets KCM. I think the issue here is that the combobox being really wide looks awkward. If you click on it, can you tell that it's sized that way because there's an item in it with longer text?

That’s what I thought at first, but no, the menu is much larger than the maximum text length.
