SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Place a "Folder View" widget on the Plasma desktop.
2. Ensure the folder displayed in the widget contains enough items to require scrolling.
3. Use the scrollbar on the right side of the widget to scroll up or down.

OBSERVED RESULT
A drag-selection area appears and expands within the Folder View widget as the scrollbar is moved. This interferes with normal navigation and can be disruptive.

EXPECTED RESULT
The content of the Folder View widget should scroll smoothly without any selection area appearing or expanding.
