Thanks Michael :)
Yes, it is working fine with gtk3 but not with VCL variant of icon view. I
guess, it is due to how the VCL variant of icon view sets the width of each
icons. As you can see in my first attachment the selected icon in shadow
style->position is appearing much wider(horizontal area around the icon) than
it should be. I have also tried to give explicit width to IconView in UI file
but it doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure how the VCL variant sets the width of
these icons. May be we need some rework there? or I'm not sure if there is
already a way to set width for VCL variant and I'm not aware of it.

Edit: Another solution I tried is setting up explicit height and width of
IconView's parent ScrolledWindow which makes the borders appearing in a single
horizontal line but it looks weird both in gtk3(i.e. Border in gtk3 when
setting explicit width to ScrolledWindow.png) and in qt6 VCL(i.e. Border in VCL
qt6 when setting explicit width to ScrolledWindow.png)

Anyway, I believe the ideal way to solve this is reducing the horizontal
spacing around the IconView in VCL qt6 but I'm not sure how we can do that.
