Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2016-02-12 11:46:54 UTC

When using FolderView in a popup and you navigate to a subdirectory you can go back pressing the Back button on your mouse anytime. It should remember the scroll position in the previous view if you go back.

Perhaps there even needs to be means to always go back, ie. have the "Up" button sticky or something like that

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place Folder in your panel
2. Click it, scroll down, navigate to sub folder (I have "Folders first" disabled)
3. Press back mouse button

Actual Results:  
The view goes back and is scrolled to the top, makes quickly traversing multiple subfolders painful

Expected Results:  
The view remembers the scroll position and is where I left it

It will be consistent with Dolphin if will be implemented

[Folder View] Remember selected item when navigating in subfolders

Summary:
When using the folder view in a panel as a popup, being in list view
mode, getting into subfolders and back with arrow keys had a weird
behaviour: the currentItem would just stay the same accross folders.

This patch restores both the proper selected item and the scrolling
position when navigating back.

Test Plan:
- Add a folder view in a panel, configure it in list view mode
- Enter a subfolder and go back
The folder you had gone into should be selected and the scrolling
position should be the same than when you entered it.
