Version: 1.0.0-beta1 (using KDE 4.2.4) Installed from: Gentoo Packages In album view of 1.0.0-beta1 it is not possible anymore to select multiple images by pressing the Ctrl key and mouse clicks. However, it is possible to use the + (or -) icons in the top left corner of the image. The behaviour of digikam when clicking an imange with Ctrl key pressed while other images are still selected is quite strange: The clicked image is shown for a short time but then switched to the first selected image. Clicking again (on the shown image), brings you back to album view, but the first selected image is now deselected.
You are talking about a Ctrl+click on the thumbnail area? This selected in previous versions instead of previewing? I see that it should. Ok, that's a bug. Clicking on the non-thumbnail area works for me.
(In reply to comment #1) > Clicking on the non-thumbnail area works for me. For me, too. But, what is also not working is selecting by dragging a "selection rectangle" around the images: This selects the images in the rectangle correctly, but deselects previous selected images regardless if CTRL is pressed or not.
SVN commit 987694 by mwiesweg: Got enough of this: Port Qt's QListView code for setSelection and replace home-brewn implementation. In my tests it worked nicely. This fixes the problems of "Weird behavior with Shift + Click" (any bug report?) and the problem "Ctrl + rubberband selection deselects previous selection".
