Created attachment 147616 [details]
Screen recording showing 2 column favourites and the temporary workaround

Application dashboard only shows the favourites list as two columns

EXPECTED RESULT
The favourites should appear in three columns making full use of the space available

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
FreeBSD 13.0
KDE Plasma Version: 5,24,2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.81.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I can temporarily switch to three column display by making a 'dummy' edit to any application in the favourites list, e.g. by adding and deleting an extra character to the end of the application name. The change only applies to the current session and I need to repeat the process every time I login

Thanks for the bug report. There have been many improvements since this bug report was opened. It appears this has been implemented in the Application Dashboard. I verified on my system that there are 3 columns used for Favorites.

If you still have an issue, please open a new bug report, thanks.
