I cannot reproduce, if I understood the problem well! For your bug report I just tried to to add a new icon on the desktop but not by dragging and releasing it as that would put it exactly where I wanted, which is great, but not for this test. So I went the the main menu (the start one, Kickoff) and right-click on a program and then I chose "Add to desktop" and it put it on a new row in my column on the left side of the screen, just like in Windows 7, as I wanted. Maybe the problem comes from the fact that you use the X session and I use the Wayland session. Plasma and Frameworks versions are exactly as mine,. Or because yourQt is newer than mine (6.9.2). Or because your distro is different than mine (Debian 14). Or because you're using a virtual GPU driver, which is different than mine (OpenGL on Intel UHD 620). Can't you try on Wayland too?
