Description Mikolaj Machowski 2009-02-23 21:34:45 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Navigating with arrow keys is the most natural way of moving through files with keyboard but when using only eg. Right I am getting to right
border of screen and it stops there. Dolphin should "wrap" files in rows and columns of files and when coming across end of such row or column should jump to next one.

With such navigation it should be possible to go through all files by
pressing only one arrow key.

Good example how it IMO should working was Konqueror 3.5 .
It of course applies to icon view (BTW - looks like icon view in Konqueror and Folder View in Plasma are also broken).
