Version: 1.2.80 (using 4.2.85 (KDE 4.2.85 (KDE 4.3 Beta1)), Kubuntu packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.29-02062903-generic I tried to highlight as I would in Windows, nautilus, etc, and one too many files got highlighted. See attached screenshot. I started at the bottom on the file shown. The screenshot is critical to understanding this bug; see below.
Created attachment 33891 [details] Screenshot: shows the top, where the xml file to the left of the picture clicked on is ALSO selected. Bad!
Created attachment 33892 [details] For completeness, here's where I started from. I might also add that when I make a new directory for these pics, shift-click works fine. Only in this folder, with these files (or more files in this folder), for some reason.
can you describe step by step the problem? I've encountered other bugs on how dolphin select files, but I cannot understand this :-)
It looks like Gabe had some files selected (second screenshot), then scrolled the view up and Shift-clicked "snapshot1.png" which unexpectedly caused also "screen-configurations.xml" to be selected (first screenshot). I can reproduce this in 4.2.3 and trunk (975689) in a similar folder. I think it might be due to the line break in "screen-configurations.xml". Looks related to bug 186395, bug 162030.
