Does any one use tilted widgets? (self.kde)

For years it is possible to tilt widgets on the Plasma desktop. I think this was introduced in KDE4. I have never used it. I was wondering, does anyone?

Yeah, I do, Some notes and some pictures

I noticed that if you rotate it 90 degrees, the dots on the side still control the top and bottom edges while the dots on the top and bottom control the sides. I wonder if this code has seen much love lately.

What do you mean by tilting?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

If you pres and hold a mouse over a desktop widget, then it enters the edit mode where you can resize it. And one of the options is also to rotate the plasmoid (the top icon in the column that appears on the right side of the widget, just hold it and drag it and it rotates the widget)

100% of the time I spend on a computer my 2 monitors filled with maximized or tiled windows, I see the desktop only on login.
