Distracting sliding animation in Gwenview

SUMMARY
Moving the mouse between different thumbnails, where the filenames are too large to show by default, causes a distracting animation to be shown.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run Gwenview
2. Browse to a folder with more than one image with long filenames
3. Hover over one such thumbnail with a long filename
4. Observe the full filename is shown
5. Move the mouse to hover over another such thumbnail with a long filename

OBSERVED RESULT
A distracting sliding animation is shown where the highlighted long filename slides from one thumbnail to the next.

EXPECTED RESULT
No such animation (e.g. just the old long filename disappearing in place and the new one appearing where one would expect it to).

Hi - I can reproduce in Gwenview 24.12.3 on Fedora KDE 41 - thanks!

I doubt there's much that would be helpful here, but for what it's worth - this apparently came up before many years ago, and was fixed many years ago: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=245091
