Created attachment 131309 [details] The startmenu list before (left) and after (right) hovering over the list with the mouse. SUMMARY Do not automatically scroll the startmenu lists on mouse hover over the lowest (or highest) item in the list. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open the startmenu by clicking on the icon in the left bottom corner of the screen 2. Move the mouse sideways to hover over a list that is so long that it does not fit within the height of the startmenu and thus has a scrollbar 3. Move the mouse upwards to select a specific entry in the list OBSERVED RESULT The list scrolls downwards for a bit and every entry changes its position upwards. I have to readjust where i need to move the mouse to select the item i want. Also, i can no longer see the title on the top of the list, or the topmost item, because it was scrolled away. EXPECTED RESULT The list does not scroll unless i use the scrollbar or scrollwheel.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 387797 ***
Un-duping this because it needs to be fixed separately (if we do decide to apply the workaround for it that we applied for the Clipboard and other System Tray applets.
Needs the same fix as Bug 387797.

With https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/merge_requests/2658, this will no longer happen in the category list by default as of Plasma 6.3.0. Lowering severity and changing title accordingly.
