I am also enthusiastic and generally positive about the new plasma rework, though a bit disappointed about the fact, that none of the launchers are in any way resizeable. Up to this point, Tiled-Menu worked well … but stopped working under newer plasma updates …
For I have really a lot of favorites to be displayed, only tiled-menu was doing the job in my case …
( restart the computer for the settings to take effect ) with that I can live now better, as soon as I fill up all favorites and rearrange them icons.
I hope eventually, some of you may find this also helpful.
P.S. eventually some updates later the settings have been reverted to standard values again, could have re-edited the settings-file, but meanwhile, I got Tiled-Menu working again, so closing this article now…was fun trying out though…
…no such problem here, as seen in my screenshot, though you can play with the 3 values a bit, my other monitor which is a tv in fact, needed other values…or even a font issue maybe?
It’s a shame you can’t easily rename application shortcuts in the launcher.
Edit : Actually, if you rename an application, by editing it, - it then appears as another shortcut in your menus, so if you remove and re-add from favourites, it shows up as the name you assign! Voila!
