Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.4.95) OS: Linux Currently the file preview (side preview) in a FileDialog changes when one hovers over the file names. While this is nice to quickly get an overview, it is seriously wrong after I selected a file and want to click OK, as the preview shown does not match the selected file, which I'm about to "OK", which is due to the fact that the mouse cursor hovers over other files while moving the cursor onto the OK (etc.) button, when moving from a file selected somewhere in the middle of the list Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: E.g. create a mail with kmail, select "add attachment" and browse a folder with some pictures in it. Expected Results: As a solution, the FileDialog should change the preview to the selected file when the mouse cursor leaves the file list viewport.
I think "kfile" was the wrong component. This probably is a problem with a file view component of dolphin ?
The file dialog does not contain any Dolphin code -> moving back to kfile ;-)
Martin, kfile is the right component, not kdelibs.
This is fixed as of KDE Frameworks 5.45; the preview returns to showing what's selected the moment it's no longer over another file.
It's not fixed as of KDE Frameworks 5.45
Thanks for confirming. I found a way to reproduce this: the mouse has to leave the viewport *without* passing over any of the blank background, and then the preview won't change back the way it should. Screen recording attached.

Me neither. It seems fixed!
