Bug ID: 417230 Summary: ShowItems does not work if folder is already open Product: dolphin Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: k...@privat.broulik.de CC: kfm-de...@kde.org Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY When using the FileManager1 interface it doesn't highlight the files if the folder is already open and it just witches to it STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. In any application that has an "open containing folder" select that option 2. and then do the same for another file in the same folder 3. OBSERVED RESULT Dolphin comes to the front and switches tabs, if necessary, but doesn't highlight the file in the second attempt EXPECTED RESULT Dolphin always highlights the file SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 5.18 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.66.0 Qt Version: 5.13.2 Dolphin master ADDITIONAL INFORMATION In DolphinTabWidget::openFiles it assumes openDirectories will open new tabs, so it only marks the URL selection for the newly opened tabs. This assumption is incorrect as Dolphin might reuse tabs when the folder is already open. Even then, markUrlsAsSelected does nothing when the folder is already opened. The selection seems to only be used when the folder finishes loading, calls made after that only change a variable without updating the actual selection. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
