Description Rafael Linux User 2018-11-26 14:29:55 UTC 
SUMMARY
From the "search" window, after a search is done and the files matched are showed, if I click on a file of the results tab, Krusader window appear, showing in actual panel the folder where the file clicked is located, but the file clicked is not automatically selected (as it should). If in Krusader panel, I change to other folder and in the "Search" window I click in the same previously clicked filename, Krusader panel will change to the correct folder (again) BUT the file clicked is NOT selected. That's to say, Krusader auto-select

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Search for files containing same (existing) text in a folder with subfolders. Must exist at least TWO files matching criteria in each folder, to see the issue.
2. In the "Results" tab in "Search" window, ordered by name, to have files ordered first by folder, and the by filename. It should appear two files in each folder.
3. Click on the first file (of the two that must appear in each folder) of a folder. Krusader panel will change to the folder where is located the file and (if not in the folder previously) Krusader will highlight the file you clicked in "Search" window.
4. Click on the second file of the same previously folder. This time, Krusader will not select the file you clicked.
5. Return to "Results" tab and this time choose the first file in a distinct folder than in steps 3 and 4. Krusader will show you the folder and will highlight the clicked file.
6. Repeat step 4. Result is the same.

OBSERVED RESULT
Krusader doesn't highlight (select) files if Krusader are showing yet the folder where the file clicked is located.

EXPECTED RESULT
To change to the folder containing the file and highlightning the clicked file.

Select item from search window

When you select an item from the search window but the panel has already the
same path, the focus switches but the new item is not selected. This patch set
the new item in the folder.
