Description Christoph Thielecke 2010-09-26 21:04:53 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

Its not possible to mark multiple pictures in overview because there is no space between the pictures. For example have to following picture overview:
01 02 03 04
05 06 07 08
09 10 11 12

Its not possible to mark picture 06, 07 by creating a rectangle around it. That works only from space on right (if cursor is arrow and now hand). But there is no space between the pictures.
At kde3 version has not this problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
try to mark picture 06 and 07 without mark others.

Actual Results:  
only the current picture is dragged.

That's true. The area in between pictures in browse mode is invisible still a part of the pictures themselves. We should fix that.

Comment 2 Justin Zobel 2022-04-17 08:09:38 UTC

Still valid in 21.12.2

Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with Gwenview 25.08.0 (the latest released version)?

Comment 4 Frank Steinmetzger 2025-09-04 15:38:43 UTC

Yes, it’s still a problem, Gwenview 25.08.0 on Arch.
