Description Jin Liu 2025-04-26 03:19:40 UTC 
SUMMARY
With Automatical Column Size on, the Size column would be correctly sized when you first-time visit a directory which has a sub-directory of more than 1000 items. But when you navigate away then go back to that directory, the Size column would be too narrow.

Debugging shows that when a directory is cached, the data `KItemListView::preferredColumnWidths` receives are all "0 items" for sub-directories.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. `cd` to some directory where a sub-directory has more than 1000 items.
2. `dolphin .`
3. The Size column is wide enough to show "1000 items".
4. Navigate to home.
5. Press Back.

OBSERVED RESULT
The Size column is too narrow to show "1000 items".

EXPECTED RESULT
The Size column has the same width as in step 3.
