plasma-framework/layouts/layout.h
Aaron J. Seigo 777b8083f8 * moves the idea of margins up to LayoutItem, allowing any LayoutItem to have a margin
* moves the idea of the size of the item up to LayoutItem, as both Widget and Layout implemented it separately
* provides a way in LayoutItem to adjust a rect within an item to its margins (that is what LayoutItem::topLeft() is there for)
* fix several bugs, both painting and sizing, in LineEdit
* Applet sets margins now based on the existence of setDrawBackground
