Description Unknown 2016-09-19 17:01:32 UTC
When you open the Application Dashboard, under the "Applications" section, sometimes it shows spaces between entries. Other times, it shows the application text, but no icons.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the Application Dashboard

Actual Results:  
Sometimes there are spaces between application entries, and sometimes they're missing the icons entirely.

Expected Results:  
All results/entries should be showing in a nice grid-like layout like normal.

Bug discovered while using Kubuntu 16.10 daily build x64, kernel 4.4.0-91360-generic.

KDE Plasma 5.7.2, KDE Frameworks 5.24.0, Qt 5.6.1

I believe this is a bug we fixed since, could you upgrade to 5.7.5 and reopen if it still happens?
Comment 4 Unknown 2016-09-19 17:09:34 UTC
@Eike, thanks for the reply. Currently Kubuntu 16.10 (not even in beta) is running Plasma 5.7.2. Is there a user-friendly way I could upgrade to 5.7.5? I didn't think it was in the backports ppa, but I can check.
Comment 5 Eike Hein 2016-09-19 17:11:43 UTC
Unfortunately I really don't know, but I sure hope Kubuntu provides bugfix releases to its users somehow :/
Comment 6 Unknown 2016-09-19 17:13:50 UTC
No worries, I'm sure the newer release version will be available for Kubuntu 16.10, eventually. Thanks for the replies and feedback. Cheers. :)

I've just tested the Application Dashboard and I cannot replicate this issue.

Can you please test and confirm if this issue is still occurring or if this bug report can be marked as resolved. I'm setting status to "needsinfo" pending your response, please change back to "reported" or "resolved" when you respond, thanks.
