How to resize a Folder View widget on the desktop?

You need to click and hold into a widget in order to have the handles appearing.
It's quite different from KDE4 where the handles appeared by hovering the pointer on one side of the the widget!

It's surely my fault, but I am not able to resize the folder view widgets I've put on the desktop.
In the previous release (14.04, KDE 4) the folder view widgets all had auto-appearing hanldes for setup, rotation and resize, among other features.
Now I have no clue how to do it. Any idea?

Mike over 7 yearsWow that is atrocious! Since when do you long click with a mouse? You know your UI sucks when people have to Google how to do something basic like move/resize.
