Hi: I just updated from 13.2 to 42.1. When I installed my usual desktop analog clock applet, I could find no way to change the size or location as I used to. In addition, when I add a panel, it swoops over to the left by itself. Is there still a way to resize and move it? Right-clicking on the clock and selecting preferences gives only two: the second had and time zone, no resizing or moving via the “handle” it used to have. Is there a way to change it?
Thanks in advance.
You can move/resize the analog clock like any other widget.
Left-click on it and hold the button for a second, and the handle bar should appear.
This has been changed in Plasma 5.5, you can get the old behaviour back (the handle bars appearing whenever you move the mouse over a widget) by deactivating the second option in “Desktop Settings”->“Tweaks”, if you prefer.
Thank you so much! I also figured out that this works with the desktop folder, so you solved two problems at once…lol!
