Description Kevin Bader 2011-01-14 08:57:08 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.4) 
OS:                Linux

When using the arrow keys in columns view mode, the behaviour is not quite intuitive. When going deeper into the filesystem using the right arrow key and back again, using the left arrow key, I would expect to get in the same folder I just were using the right arrow key again. Instead I end up in another folder - the first one on the list - instead in the visible folder you just were before.

Sorry for my bad English. I will explain in other words if this helps.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
select a folder which has at least two subfolders -> press right arrow key -> select a folder other than the first -> press right arrow key -> press left arrow key twice (you can still see all three folders, you would expect to end up in the folder visible by pressing the right arrow key twice) -> press right arrow key twice

Actual Results:  
you end up in another folder

Expected Results:  
ending up in the same folder again

Thanks for the report, I could reproduce the issue.

(internal hint: Respect the active index when setting the active directory)

DolphinColumnView navigation works more intuitively.

If no item is selected then pressing right moves to a column view with child url, instead of the first index.
