STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open Date & Time KCM and click on 'Time Zone' tab
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Some Areas and almost all Regions are elided. We can resize the columns to make all Areas and Regions entirely readable,  but the columns need to be resized again every time we repeat the step 1.
Please see the attached screenshot.


EXPECTED RESULT
All Areas and Regions should be entirely readable after the provided step.
Or the width of the columns should be remembered after resizing at least.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition

Can confirm. You can manually resize the columns, but they should have better widths by default.
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2025-03-27 16:21:10 UTC 
Patrick, it's actually helpful if you leave the version field alone. We use this as "version first reported in" not "version last encountered in".

If used as the latter, it makes it difficult for us to track how buggy individual releases are.

In Plasma 6.4 the time zone picker is visual, not tabular; so this is no longer an issue.
