Bug ID: 387657
Summary: Folders panel does not auto scroll vertically
Product: dolphin
Version: 17.08.3
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: panels: folders
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: anonis...@yahoo.com
Target Milestone: ---
Dolphin is no longer auto scrolling/expanding on dirs outside $HOME
per
https://github.com/KDE/dolphin/blob/f024c3c01f1d80cb5972cca8043188daacce72e5/src/panels/folders/folderspanel.cpp
FoldersPanelSettings::setLimitFoldersPanelToHome(enable);
is by default set to enable, causing auto scroll/expand to only work in the
home dir (and the folders panel to only show homedir and child dirs)
if I edit .config/dolphinrc to include "LimitFoldersPanelToHome" to "false" and
"AutoScrolling=true", in theory it should allow scrolling to occur at all times
(and the folder panel should show the whole tree and expand accordingly).
Instead, it shows a collapsed tree of all dirs, but no
auto-expand/auto-scrolling occurs, and I have to manually double click the dirs
in the folder panel to open the branch, and then manually navigate on the
folder pane, doubleclicking to expand, to see it. Clicking any child folder on
the main view does not expand or scroll the folder panel, it stays collapsed.
I downloaded and built dolphin from git (package dolphin-git in aur, built
version is dolphin-git-r5286.504545c59-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz) and issue remains.
in versions 17.08.x no autoscrolling occurs at all, even in the home dir.
Version 18.03.70 (git) at least allows autoscrolling to occur at the home dir
per default.
plasma/kde at 5.11/17.08.3, dolphin at both 17.08.3 and 18.03.70 (git)
relevant section in dolphinrc:
this causes no scrolling to occur at all:
[FoldersPanel]
AutoScrolling=true
HiddenFilesShown=true
LimitFoldersPanelToHome=false
leaving it at
[FoldersPanel]
HiddenFilesShown=true
causes default behavior (only homedir is expanded/scrolled) but outside
homedir, no expansion/scrolling
