            Bug ID: 454357
           Summary: Allow for column padding to the 'right'
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 22.04.1
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist

  Target Milestone: ---

Recently Dolphin added a 'full row highlight' which has been a great addition.

However some use cases have arisen because of this. I'll quote a user from a
reddit thread about this

https://old.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/usa6rf/dolphin_finally_gets_full_row_highlight/

"If we have a folder full of folders from top to bottom how can we drop
something besides them that doesn't go into any of the folders?"

The reply to this was:

"Windows works around this is that the columns end at the right hand side so
there is an empty space where the highlight ends and you can drop the files
there and it will be put into the containing folder"

I'm aware that there is a 'Leading Column Padding' (left) option, but is it
possible to add a 'Following Column Padding' (right) option also? The padding
to the left generally has a small width but allowing padding to the right would
give the user a wider area to drop their files into. Many thanks.
