Description Gerhard 2011-02-07 19:13:11 UTC
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

If I highlight a folder in the details view and want to create a folder from the context menu, it doesn't work any more. See steps to reproduce.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. switch dolphin to "details" view
2. highlight a folder with a left click
3. right click to bring up the context menu
4. choose Create New | Folder from the context menu


Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
Eventually, a new folder should appear as a subfolder of the just selected folder. (Before there should be a dialogue asking for the folder's name, of course)

It works if I don't highlight any item before, just right click into a "whitespace". Creating a folder via File | Create New | Folder works, too.

I'm sure this is a regression, worked before.

Thanks for the report, I can confirm in master. It works as expected in the 4.5 branch.

Two remarks:

1. One can leave out your step 2.
2. It seems that the other view modes are also affected.
