Description linnets 2012-05-25 00:07:41 UTC 
The selected mark was at some child folder/file in treeview mode. If I want to quick select its parent folder I can use right arrow key.

But, in KDE 4.8.2, Dolphin/Konqueror, when I press right arrow key, the upper item is highlighted.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. View in Treeview mode
2. Expand a folder
3. select some its child folder/file not right under the parent folder
4. Press right arrow key
Actual Results:  
The upper item is selected

Expected Results:  
Its parent folder is selected

Sorry for my stupidity, I meant LEFT arrow key, NOT right. :(
Comment 2 Peter Penz 2012-05-26 11:27:44 UTC 
Thanks for the report: Yes, this behavior is inconsistent to the default behavior when using Qt's treeviews.

Internal notes:
- Pressing "left" again should close the current folder if it is expanded
- Pressing "left" should go to the parent folder if it is already collapsed

Frank, thanks for the patch! I did not try it yet but I think what is still missing is that the parent folder gets collapsed. For a reference behavior I've opened a file-dialog with a tree-view. But I can take care for this if you don't have time, please just let me know.

You have implemented this some time ago, see the first part of KItemListController:keyPressEvent():
