I don't really know how to describe this behavior, but I'll take my best shot.

When changing background wallpaper, Configure Desktop > Background > Picture > Browse and then having the dialog resort the images by Date, navigating the items with the arrow keys gets a bit weird.

For instance, starting at one item and then pressing the down arrow, will sometimes jump over an image. Moving back up the list will highlight the skipped image.

I checked the last modified dates of the file being skipped and the file after it, and they were the same. The last accessed dates were only seconds apart.

Konqueror though seems to do it correctly when navigating through the pictures.

I guess the best way to put it is that after sorting by the last modified date in the dialog box, the mechanism that is looking at the next file in line is not taking into account the date last accessed, instead its looking at the order of the files with respect to their file names.

It sounds confusing, and maybe it's not a bug at all, but I did a doubletake the first time it happened and thought it was wrong.

I took two short flash movies of the behaviors to show what's going on.

If the links become unavailable, I would be more than happy to email them to any interested persons

The first flash shows the correct (i think) behavior as Konqueror does it. The second flash shows how the open wallpaper dialog box from the control center does it.

Note that both lists of items were sorted by Date before I made the flash movies
