Can you verify that a thick (vertical) panel still gives you an expanded Kickoff? That was the reason I didn't implement this for FolderView.
It doesn't, and so far the consensus on Plasma when discussing this has been that we care more about fixing the usual vertical panel use case than a Kickoff sidebar. It's probably also good for Latte Dock where they have problems with the parabolic zoom causing repr switches.
Thx for the accept.
I think it may be possible to write smarter code that does something like "look at the switchWidth/switchHeight, and if without the size limit they would be reached, drop the limit" or something ... and manage the content and the layout sizes indepedently for it. I think we should try to fix this better for 5.11 for sure.
Indeed, might need a concept of some softer limit, so it won't grow the icon (which is what we're trying here) but still has it expand above a given threshold. I don't think Kickoff was that usable (or nice to look at, rather) in a sidebar panel, so fine with me on 5.10.
Btw show desktop (on the default panel setup too I think) and minimize all might also need similar treatment.
They seem to use the default compact repr and already work.
Trickier question is what to do about Folder View, and also Kimpanel is really broken still and a lot more complex to fix.
