The first file has a thicker hitbox.

There's a inconsistency when selecting multiple files/folders that makes them unable to be selected in a visually-satisfying, pixel-perfect way.
Comment 1 Fernando M. Muniz 2025-02-21 22:32:17 UTC 
Are their hitboxes based on their same-sized squares set by the system? Or is it what is bigger on the files (long thumb/name)?

Can reproduce.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2025-09-24 13:50:17 UTC 
…And now I no longer can! changes to delegate sizing have fixed this for Plasma 6.5.
