SUMMARY - Overview mode does not show more than one row STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a document; Select Overview mode 2. Increase the number of columns in Settings > General 3. OBSERVED RESULT A single row of pages is displayed wasting a lot of vertical space that could be used to better fulfill the spirit of "overview" EXPECTED RESULT Several rows of pages should be displayed, increasing proportionally with the number of columns specified in Settings SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS see below ADDITIONAL INFORMATION kinfo output Operating System: Fedora Linux 42 KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.14.0 Qt Version: 6.9.0 Kernel Version: 6.14.9-300.fc42.x86_64 (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-6820HK CPU @ 2.70GHz Memory: 31.2 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor 1: Intel® HD Graphics 530 Graphics Processor 2: llvmpipe
Looks like there's a package on Debian called katarakt which has a grid view. Overview should be like that.
UPDATE - I just opened another pdf file, and it is showing multiple rows. I am not sure why the first document shows only one row.
Further experimentation reveals that some documents open in continuous view and others do not, which seems to account for the variation in the number of rows presented in overview. So perhaps the UX needs to be tweaked so that it's a bit more intuitive to a user what is going on.

And "open in continuous view by default" *is* set in my settings, so why do some documents not open that way?
Are you sure you are using 25.04.1? Because this seems like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=497715 but should be fixed on 25.04.1 Unless you manually selected "Use file information to determine whether to open in continuous mode by default" and then are complaining that this is happening.
