Weird desktop view #7

Hello, I followed your guide to install i3wm with kde on arch linux.

I can't really describe what's the issue but it look like plasma desktop is part of the tiling app and fill only half of the screen? IMG_20210217_105307

Seems like you just moved the widget outside of the bar.

I think the problem is that you're running a panel on the side of the screen. I don't think this will work in i3... I believe that i3 understands that window as been full screen width, and the current dock height... If you move the dock to the top or bottom, I think it will work the way you are expecting.
