it doest allow me to resize it

am I doing something wrong? or do I need to do something else in order for this to work?

no i can imagine not especially if you are booted from said partition, you will probably need a live cd with gparted if you want to resize the active root partition

Hi there. You cannt resize an online partition . Instead download the gparted live cd , or if you prefer enter on the kubuntu live cd you've already got , and install gparted from there.

Then it will let you resize
