Displays the visual artifacts caused by resizing the icon view — torn icons and stuck labels are clearly visible after reducing icon size with Ctrl + Mouse Wheel Down.

**SUMMARY**  
When resizing the Dolphin icon view using either the mouse wheel while holding Ctrl or the Ctrl + / Ctrl - shortcuts, visual artifacts appear. These include broken or "torn" icons and text labels that remain stuck on the screen. The issue occurs both with fast and slow resizing, but is most commonly seen when decreasing the icon size.

---

**STEPS TO REPRODUCE**
1. Open Dolphin.  
2. Use the mouse to resize the window via its edge or corner.  
3. Observe the icons and labels during and after resizing.

---

**OBSERVED RESULT**  
- Icons become visually torn or misaligned.  
- Text labels remain "stuck" or ghosted on the screen.  
- Redraw issues persist until something triggers a full repaint (e.g., minimizing and restoring the window).

---

**EXPECTED RESULT**  
Smooth resizing with proper redraw of all UI elements.

I can reproduce this on my Fedora KDE 42 device using Dolphin built from git master, and can't reproduce on 6.3.5. Thanks!

What are the specs of your system? What do you use Wayland or xorg?

This could mean a lot for development.
