Description FabiB 2017-04-27 15:27:29 UTC
When you open the integrated konsole(ikonsole) in dolphin, the fileview above got slimmed down. this results to a jumpy behavior.

When I mark a file, i want to edit, and now open the ikonsole, this marked file will most likely now out of my field of view, I need to scroll again to find this file.

Dolphin should keep showing the files I was at, when re-sizing the window or open the iKonsole.

extrem example:

open dolphin
go to /usr/lib/
scroll to libkdeinit5_dolphin.so and mark/highlight this file
press F4 to open ikonsole

you now have to search this file again, wich is a very unproductive and bad behavior

This is not going to be possible in many cases, because the window will be either vertically maximized or sow close to the bottom that extending it by several hundred pixels will make it jump anyway.
