Hi,

I'm still using KDE4 Workspace, but with plasma-oxygen for Qt5 apps 
(mainly QtCreator).
I will try Plasma5 again soon, but in 5.0 font rendering was bad with 
full hinting [0].

After updating plasma-oxygen from 5.0.2 to 5.1.0, with the same font size :
  - menu bar and menu items now have a big vertical padding (looks 
horrible IMHO)
  - checkboxes are bigger
  - buttons have a bigger vertical padding
  - ...
I like the compact KDE4 style, here all I see is wasted space in comparison.

I can't find anything in oxygen-settings5 to revert this, do you know if 
there is an option somewhere ?
