Hi, this looks potentially related to bug 415184, where Yakuake's size seems to be affected by scaling factors greater than 1.

Are you able to check if you're scaling your screen at all?

No problem, thanks!  I scale my screen by factor of 3, Does that Help?

Thank you for what you do;

That's perfect, thank you so much! It seems like Yakuake's size is determined based on the screen resolution before scaling, which results it being tiny and not centered after Plasma has been scaled appropriately.

I'm marking this as a duplicate of bug 389448, and hopefully we'll be able to get a solution out soon! There's also some workarounds in the comments of that bug, you may find some of them helpful.
