Description Rinus Bakker 2011-09-27 11:12:19 UTC

OS:                Linux

If in thumbnail bar above the image view several images are selected and you want to deselect some of them, control click on thumb  to deselect  resets focus to first photo. That makes it time consuming and stressful.

Good workaround is to leave image view and deselect.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
select 20 images in this thumb bar and try to deselect last three.

Actual Results:  
hard work

Expected Results:  
it should be easy

Selection is changed in the thumbbar
-> Thumbbar selection is synced to main view
-> selection change is handled in digikamview
-> the first selected item is set as preview item in slotDispatchImageSelected
-> first selected item is displayed in preview area, and set in the thumbbar as current index in StackedView::setPreviewItem

The difficulty once again is to find a generic solution, not only one which works for the corner case.
