Widgets across several panels

Hi folks,
Apologies if this’s been asked before, but I couldn’t find anything and can’t figure out how to do this myself so here goes.
Essentially what I want is for me to be able to:

  • a) have two sets of widgets side by side on a vertical panel;
  • b) have a panel above two other panels;
  • or c) have a widget span across two panels.

I’ve drawn up what I would want this to look like/accomplish (and it should be attached), so if anyone has any ideas for achieving it it’d be much appreciated.

Thanks !

With some fiddling, you can have A and B, probably.

Use empty panels, then add the widgets you want - task manager, system tray

My Plasma Style has roundness, not sure how that plays with other styles.

Unfortunately, the easy way of just adding a widget above the two panels is not possible, widgets don’t seem able to occupy the empty space left over from a shortened panel

I’ll keep fiddling about with it, but as you say widgets don’t use up the rest of the vertical space when panels are shortened so I don’t think I’ll get exactly what I am looking for.
Thanks very much though :slight_smile:
