I just had Dolphin move its separation line:
-
I lanched Dolphin:
-
I then restarted it:
Weird. Because it’s not reproducible, I estimate this isn’t really worth a bug report so I’ll mention it here, in case it’s useful.
I believe it is an issue in your theme.
@meven, I’m using unmodified Breeze (to my knowledge) - /usr/share/color-schemes/BreezeDark.colors is undermentioned, if of interest:

I don’t know if this is the best topic, but why is there this separation line at first place? It wasn’t there in Plasma 5. Also vertical split has one single line instead of double one
@crossroads, because distinguishing the boundary between the toolbar and tab strip isn’t possible without it.
But it is, ot at least it was
This is Plasma 5 (Dolhpin & Konsole), there’s a line from the bottom point of tab and bellow it
And this is in version 6, with line from top point of tabs
@crossroads, what “is” (or “was”) what? I don’t understand what you intend to demonstrate. Apologies.
Irrespective, what’s your interest in this? Surely the addition of the separator is an improvement, considering that the elements serve separate purposes? Without it, the GUI would be inconsistent.
Sorry, maybe I didn’t explain it well. I just don’t know if this change is planned, or is it related to theme (Breeze) or is it maybe a bug.
Because, for me, previous design, in Plasma5, is better.
Yes, the change is intentional. Yes, it comes from the theme. No, it is not a bug.
I am sorry to hear that you do not like the change. Please keep in mind though that the appearance of Dolphin does not exist in a vacuum. There was a change to have the toolbar areas of all applications in KDE separated from the rest of the application by a line. This change also affected Dolphin.
Overall, I think it looks much better now, but I understand that this might just be my personal preference.

Ok, thank you for information. It’s not like I’m going to stop using it, it’s just that I didn’t know about this change.
@crossroads, the others would know better about this than I, but I don’t think these kinds of visual changes are even put in the changelog. There are a lot of commits for all kinds of myriad modifications each day, and not all are noteworthy enough to explicitly communicate.
