DESCRIPTION When starting Discover, especially noticeable on a slow system, initially the Home/Installed/Updates/Settings/About items (the "topContent" in the QML) are not aligned to the top of the drawer. Instead, they are vertically centered. When the categories appear, they are pushed to the top, which is OK, but it would look slicker if the top content was already at the top before the categories appear. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Run Discover, especially while your system is busy (e.g. have Discover in a saved Plasma session which is being restored) 2. Look at the left-hand drawer OBSERVED RESULT Notice that Home/Installed/Updates/Settings/About are vertically centered briefly, until the categories appear below them, pushing them to the top. EXPECTED RESULT Home/Installed/Updates/Settings/About are aligned to the top of the drawer (under the Search bar) immediately, so that when the categories appear, they don't have to move. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20260516 KDE Plasma Version: 6.6.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.26.0 Qt Version: 6.11.0 Kernel Version: 7.0.7-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION As an alternative step to reproduce, run "plasma-discover --backends none" which will show the vertical centering when no categories are present. I expect the issue is somewhere in https://invent.kde.org/plasma/discover/-/blob/master/discover/qml/DiscoverDrawer.qml?ref_type=heads but I don't know enough about QML to fix.
I suspect this is actually in Kirigami, not Discover. I'll see if I can fix it.
Yep, found it and fixed it. Merge request incoming.

Git commit 5a2f18bc929cb068b51d6ab9202dbfd60203bd71 by Nate Graham. Committed on 20/05/2026 at 16:51. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. GlobalDrawer: top-align topContent You would expect this to happen based on the name, but it only happens if the rest of the view fills up with stuff and pushes up the topContent items. Manually top-align them so they're always located in the right place.
