[Plasma] To demonstrate the power of Flex Tape…

I sawed this panel in half!

I've never seen anyone do this. It seemed like a good idea & it was. It's very nice. It's not very fancy besides the split bottom panel & the status bar on the left. I'm using Smart Video Wallpaper Reborn for the wallpaper & the Plasma style, application style, & window decorations are Oxygen. The audio visualizer on the right bottom panel is Panon. The comic is Freefall by Mark Stanley.

Sorry if I formatted this badly, I'm using Mastodon & I've never made a Lemmy post.

I have an ultrawide so I like splitting the panels WAY up. It's just so much wasted space, otherwise. Lumping it all together in the center makes it intrusive again, but pushing everything out to the side and along the bottom are the areas that are most out of focus but still at-a-glance.

The App Launcher is set to autohide. In order to get this to work, make sure you set the Visibility for the floating panels to "Windows go below", otherwise it stacks them out on separate rows and looks awful.
