Description Matthias Ettrich 2008-08-11 15:34:45 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

The bug can easily be seen in KMail, where it creates a usability problem: when using Ctrl-Left/Right to select different folders, the window title changes but the tree-view with Oxygen does not indicate the current item.

In the current item != selected item scenario in single-selection mode, there must be a visual hint of some kind. 

This works with other styles, e.g. Plastique.
  
Cheers and congratulations for an otherwise very pretty and functional Oxygen style!

I can confirm in Kmail 1.10.0 on KDE 4.1 from the Ubuntu packages.

Hi,
this fixes the bug for me. As you can see KStyle doesn't handle rotated widgets correctly (like vertical tabs) and adds the margins at the wrong places. I welcome any suggestions!

I couldn't test the patch with KMail (kdepim & kdesupport don't build), so it might not work there. I'd appreciate any feedback.

I confirm that focus indicator in treeviews is available, on option.
The option is systemsettings->appearance->style->configure->views->draw focus indicator. 

It is working. It is off by default, per design choice
