            Bug ID: 502961
           Summary: 'New Tab' button does not display correctly when the
                    tab bar is aligned to the side (vertical)
    Classification: Applications
           Product: konsole
           Version: 24.12.3
          Platform: Arch Linux

            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR

Two screenshots. The first showcases the issue using a left-aligned tab bar,
the second is a comparison using a top-aligned tab bar.

SUMMARY
The 'New Tab' button in Konsole's tab bar allowing you to open a new terminal
tab does not seem to display correctly if the tab bar is aligned to the left or
right of the window (aka the tabs are vertical).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Navigate to these settings: Configure -> Tab Bar / Splitters -> Appearance.
2. Activate the tab bar to show either 'Always' or 'When needed'.
3. Set the position of the tab bar to either 'To the left of terminal area' or
'To the right of terminal area'.
4. Activate the option "Show 'New Tab' button".

OBSERVED RESULT
A margin above the open tabs appears, but there is no icon within it. Clicking
the empty space does not open a new tab.

EXPECTED RESULT
A 'New Tab' icon appears above the vertical tabs. Compare the functional 'New
Tab' icon when using horizontal tabs.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
If this is related to the icon theme in some way, I am using the Buuf icon
pack. If this turns out to be an issue with the icon theme missing an icon, I
think Konsole should rely on a fallback icon instead.
