I can't reproduce this. Nate, you maybe?
Comment 2 Kai Uwe Broulik 2018-10-10 06:53:25 UTC
I can. It happens when you fill up Favorites such that the favorites list is longer than the category list. The window grows and the categories are bottom-aligned. Seems intentional?
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2018-10-10 20:34:54 UTC
Yes, it's because there are so many favorites. Clearly intentional at the moment, but maybe worth revisiting the design to better accommodate this situation.
Comment 4 Alexander Lohnau 2020-06-15 10:08:58 UTC
This has been fixed :-)

@Patrick Silva Do you have a KDE gitlab account?

I am seeing you quite often in the bug reports and it would be nice for the review process if were involved in the discussions about the merge requests.
