Can you still reproduce this? Do you mean by scrolling through the applications -> All Applications?

Comment 3 Rune 2025-04-08 10:43:12 UTC

It is much better now. Sometimes, when selecting all applications by hovering after opening the menu by clicking on the plasmoid, it takes a few scrolls until the scroll input registers.

I'm having the same scrolling issue, but for me it doesn't matter if I launch the Application Dashboard by clicking the plasmoid, or hitting the windows key.

Hovering the mouse pointer over the horizontal lines before scrolling always works, but in other places the scroll doesn't get registered.

May I ask you for a video of this happening? It sounds like that might help reproduce the issue.

I believe this was fixed in Plasma 6.4.0. Haven't been able to reproduce the bug since.
