I use xfce and they have a panel plugin to add a visual separator. I kind of hacked one together using launcher_cmd and launcher_icon in wf-shell.ini. But it's limited to where I can place it. > launcher_cmd_separator2 = launcher_icon_separator2 = /usr/share/icons/Papirus/symbolic/apps/separator-symbolic.svg  here's how the separators look on my xfce panel  https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/separator
