[pier_andreit]

using opensuse leap 42.2, plasma 5.9.90, KDE frameworks 5.30.0, KDE applications 16.12.1

in KDE4 when I adjust the height of a panel placed in the bottom of the screen a number appear, is it possible to have this also in plasma5??

Are your talking about this height value that is in $HOME/.config/plasmashellrc with the name of thickness under [PlasmaViews][Panel <num_1>][Horizontal<num_2>](where <num_1|2> are integral numbers for different configurations)?

Request it at kde.org, this is not some openSUSE issue.
BTW… Am I right in seeing that your repos aren’t the stock ones?

Actually this was an openSUSE specific patch that nobody ever bothered to port to Plasma5.

And I agree, that feature should better be added upstream in the first place.
