screenshot ot system setting on my system.
SUMMARY
I have a have a large high res monitor, and so I set the system font size to
22. The system settings dialog has up to three panels. One has a list of
sections to edit and is too narrow to make out many of the items in the list,
and worse, there is no way to expand the panel.
When selecting most item is the left panel another panel opens to the right if
the list. It is als a fixed width and so most item in that new list are
truncated and so hard ro make out. There is no way to expand that panel
either.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Settings
2. Note virtually all items listed in the left panel are truncated and there
is no way to expand the panel horizontally.
3. Note when selecting most item, ex. Accessibility, most item is the new
panel are truncated and there is no way to expan the panel horizontally
OBSERVED RESULT
No way to expand panels to allow viewing list without truncated item in list.
EXPECTED RESULT
I expect to be able to read items in either panel, ans os not have to guess or
click on item to see what it does. I guess eventually I'll get used to it and
remember what most items are for, but I don't believe KDE is interested in
having poor UI issues.

don't find a way to do that.
