Description julien.t43+kde 2012-10-11 18:59:38 UTC 
When using keyboard navigation in the main screen of digikam, with 'tab', you can switch the focus to the Albums list part and move from albums to another with arrows but after, it seems there is no way to validate/enter album and to display its contents
(Enter=F3=display full image of initial album, space=next file in current folder, same if combined with shift/alt/ctrl)

Probably a KDE issue but don't find a solution for now

Release 2.8.0 (kde 4.8.5, lubuntu 12.04 ppa).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open digikam
2. hit tab multiple times to have focus on another album than current
3. try to display the new album
Actual Results:  
can't switch display to new album. mouse only action

Expected Results:  
there should be a key to switch album

I have the same problem with 2.9.0

this makes the keyboard navigation unusable...
Comment 2 caulier.gilles 2013-11-26 17:26:50 UTC 
It still valid using digiKam 3.5.0 ?

Steps to Reproduce: (3.4) 
1. open digikam 
2. hit tab multiple times to have focus on sidebar "My albums"
3. move w arrows to another album
3. try to display the new album
Enter=nothing (idem w Ctrl/Alt)
space=next image of initially displayed album
F3=full screen of image
ideas of other key to test?

Test on 3.4 (lubuntu 13.10/kde 4.11.3 main install).  pending on 3.5(macos 10.9/kde 4.11.4/macports, mostly w network share)(long collection scanning...)
