[dolphin] [Bug 362546] Drawing rectangle around item doesn't select it
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=362546 --- Comment #6 from Roman Gilg --- I think it's somehow related with the behavior when you have selected multiple files and then press Ctrl+Arrow-up/down. In this case the selection won't change but the "underlined/active" item. Seems still somewhat counter intuitive and/or over engineered. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=362546 --- Comment #5 from Nate Graham --- The fact that this is so reproducible makes me think it really is a hidden feature. For what reason I don't know, but I'd be open to re-opening this issue if we get more reports of confusion. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=362546 --- Comment #4 from Roman Gilg --- Hey, thanks for the tip. Could be still make more sense to have the selection marker move always to the last selected item with or without the mouse cursor hovering about it. This feels still like a bug to be honest. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=362546 Nate Graham changed: What|Removed |Added Status|REOPENED|RESOLVED Resolution|--- |WORKSFORME --- Comment #3 from Nate Graham --- I see now. I can reproduce it 100%. I also notice the following: If while dragging a box, your mouse moved over the item itself, the selection marker is moved to that item. If while dragging a box you do *not* move the mouse over any items, the selection marker stays where it was before. This behavior is 100% reproducible, so I suspect it's intentional. So you can opt to move the selection marker to the items you're dragging a box around by making sure that your mouse cursor passes over the item you want selected. Marking this as resolved since the feature already exists in the form you want it--albeit in a slightly subtle form. Let me know if you have any further questions. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

But maybe it's meant as a "feature" (having different selection than active element). Do you have one click to open activated as well?

When I use the keyboard select one item, and then use the cursor/box to select a different item, the selection cursor moves from the second selection as expected, not the first. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
