Ok, I have to alter the description a little. When you add a new directory the folders view is not updated to show the new directories. Not even if you press F5 a billion times. Not until you press the parent folders arrow that closes its contents from view, and then press the arrow again to show it, that is. I can't see why this should not be done automagically. Some magic little library call missing? Thanks for the report, but please report only one issue per entry: The F5-issue seems to be related to bug 211472. > Please, tell me that this is not some fancy new design decision Regarding opening the current tree per default: It is no fancy design decision, but the default behavior on all file managers I know that have a kind of tree panel. Dragging files to sub-folders is still possible because: - All sub-folders are already shown in the main-view - The sub-folders open automatically as soon as you drag the items above the parent-folder of the tree panel/folders panel. But of course this default behavior is discussable. I'll leave it open as "wishlist" item so that other users can give their feedback and/or vote for this. Ah, I just noticed you changed the title: Please let me know which of the 2 reports you want to have fixed. If it is the original report then I'd kindly ask to just revert the title change. Thanks. I thought it was impossible to see the lowest levels of dirs at all. But then I realized that it was only not updated until you had clicked the arrow to open and close the dir. Thus, what I would like to report is the lack of automagical update of the directopry tree when new directories are added. The updating works fine here: When creating a directory in the main view and the folders panel is expanded, the new directory will be shown. Precondition ------------ Folders Panel shows: v home v peter > A > B > C Main view shows folder /home/peter: A B C Steps to reproduce the issue: - Create a new folder D in the main view Expected result: - Folders Panel shows: v home v peter > A > B > C > D This is the case here. If this does not work for you then the issue is a duplicate of bug 211472. Hi! No, as I said, pressing F5 does not resfresh the file tree as it does in that other bug. Are you using KDE 4.8.0? I' m using 4.8.0 - still it is out of scope of Dolphin then if F5 does not help and it is a duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 211472 *** |
