How the Transform options effect shows

SUMMARY
The pile of effects doesn't appear as a column that takes all the width of the window, making the effects options unreachable

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start a new project
2. Add a video or audio clip
3. Add any effect to it (like Transform or Volume)

OBSERVED RESULT
The effects window seems to want to display the effects list like thumbnails or something, instead of a list like it used to do in previous releases. (see included screenshot) This makes the effects options unreachable.

EXPECTED RESULT
The effects entry should fill the entire window width like it used to do with previous versions

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.1.0
Qt Version: 6.7.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Tested on all further versions, the bug is present on all of them. Versions 23.x series doesn't seem affected... Sorry if it's already posted

Ok can someone check out this bug, please ??

When KDE frameworks went to 6.2.0, the kdenlive 23.8.5 has now a glitch where effects and compositions became unaccessible. (their window appear in plain white) So i cannot use any effects at all now, no matter the version i use.

Please.

Note: I tried to delete config files, but no changes.

Try using the appimage directly from the kdenlive website. I had the exact same bug when using the kdenlive package from AUR.

This seems to be related to kvantum styles. Switch to Fusion or another style and it should be ok

I'm using the flatpak version for now and it works alright with it. And it made me realize it might be caused by the theme indeed. Maybe I should report the problem to the kvantum devs as well?

Yes, please. I am very sure this has nothing to do with Kdenlive per se, so it needs to be brought to the attention of the folks maintaining kvantum.

If your issue is solved now please update the status to RESOLVED. Thanks!

Well, the bug report i sent to the kvantum github just got plain hostility (in the "tried with another theme that the one you mentionned, bug didn't occured for me so i close it and won't investigate" fashion) so i guess there's no way to get it fixed, sadly :/

Anyway thank you all for the help in investigating.
