Version: (using KDE KDE 3.1) Installed from: Debian stable Packages OS: Linux How to reproduce: 1. Open a KDE file selctor (File/Open... i used that one of konqueror) 2. Go to /usr/share/wallpapers 3. Select the first file of the list (in my case that is 'All-Good-People-1.jpg') 4. Now use the cursor down key to move throuh the list. On my system, the following file won't be selected: Blkmarble.jpg No-Ones-Laughing-3.jpg triplegears.jpg 5. If you reached the last entry of the list, use cursor up key to move throuh the list backwards: No, the follownig files won't be selected: No-Ones-Laughing-3.jpg Chicken-Songs-2.jpg It's likely that the error will only occour if the same files are available on your systems. So here's a list of all files under my /usr/share/wallpapers: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 50261 2003-01-19 16:05 All-Good-People-1.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5498 2003-01-19 16:05 Blkmarble.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20106 2003-01-19 16:05 Chicken-Songs-2.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4365 2003-01-19 16:05 Circuit.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 144508 2003-01-19 16:03 debian.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 133902 2003-01-19 16:05 default_blue.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 52126 2003-01-19 16:05 default_gears.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3401 2003-01-19 16:05 Foggy1.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 241256 2003-01-19 16:05 kde_box.png -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 82075 2003-01-19 16:05 kde_passion.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6026 2003-01-19 16:03 kdm_bg.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8055 2003-01-19 16:05 Marble01.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 30709 2003-01-19 16:05 No-Ones-Laughing-3.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 87795 2003-01-19 16:05 only_k.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1662 2003-01-19 16:05 Paper01.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 25301 2003-01-19 16:05 Planning-And-Probing-1.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 32453 2003-01-19 16:05 Time-For-Lunch-2.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 61809 2003-01-19 16:05 Totally-New-Product-1.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 117602 2003-01-19 16:05 triplegears.jpg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 40416 2003-01-19 16:05 Won-Ton-Soup-3.jpg Regards Henning
I am seeing almost the same - I get different missed files when moving backwards up the list. It doesn't matter if automatic preview is selected or not.
Yes, I know about this problem -- it's a bug in QIconView, which is hopefully to be fixed in the next Qt release.
Looks to me like it's a case problem: filenames are sorted whatever case they are, but the keyboard arrows select capitals first, if you know what i mean

The iconview doesn't know about rows or columns and tries to find the "nearest" item. This obviously finds wrong items in some cases. I'm discussing this with TrollTech, but we haven't found a satisfiable solution, yet.
