Description Pierre THOMAS 2015-01-14 14:43:32 UTC

The scrolling steps are much too small in folders and places panels compared to right panel (folders and files) where the steps are OK.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use vertical scrolling in folders panel or in places panel.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
The steps are much too small and so useless !

Expected Results:  
The same result as in right panel.

This bug should to be fixed for having Dolphin well finished !!

Thanks for the bug report. The step size for the scroll bar is set in KItemListContainer::updateScrollOffsetScrollBar(). It seems that view->itemSize() might be empty for the views of the Folders and Places panels.

Just posting to say I am still seeing this problem in version 16.08.3, on KDE Plasma 5.8.4. Makes the Folders panel pretty much unusable.

Bonjour,

For people in my association I assist and train for using their PC, I am trying to convince them to use Mageia Linux version 5 with KDE for replacing Windows XP, Vista and Seven (soon). I tell them that bugs we met and I report to KDE will be soon corrected, but none of them including this one is corrected ...

And I can add what seems to me to be another bug in Dolphin: in display menu, locking of panel does not lock anything, places panel is continuously getting too small.

I continue to hope ...

Pierre

Actually this bug has been fixed, you need to wait for the upcoming 16.12 release.
