I have read this bug:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56070

But the minimum width of these panels is bugging me too. How about if I shrink them smaller that the max width of the embedded widgets, then I get a scroll bar at the bottom?

I have the same trouble with the panels on the bottom, they are too tall. I want to shrink them down to just small enough that I can see if a message is written and it scrolls. If I see that then I will expand it and read the messages.

The panels don't bother me when editing. The problem is debugging. I want the watch window open but then I can't see all of the code without scrolling.

Implementing this bug would relieve the need to keep the watch window open. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60168

The smaller the display the worse this problem gets. It is very annoying on one system I have with a 1024x768 display.
