Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.5.3) OS: Linux With the recent mimetype icon changes I found a weird behavior in the Folder View plasmoid. When you select a file and hold down the mouse button, the 256x256 icon version is always loaded in a scaled-down version while the rest of Folder View loads the icons in the correct size (in my case 48x48). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Select a file, hold down the mouse button Actual Results: A totally different icon than the usual one. Expected Results: Folder View should use the icon file size selected in its preferences and scale it down by a view pixels to get the same result with correct icons.

[Comment from a bug triager] I can reproduce this with KDE SC 4.6beta2 on ArchLinux 686
..And confirmed on 4.7.4, too
Aaawesome! Now this is another confirmation of the dreaded iconloader bug. Thank you for reporting!
commit f1ea9f65eaabf3e5e8a6076df580818effcaf7aa Author: Michael Pyne <mpyne@kde.org> Date: Thu May 10 21:59:38 2012 -0400 Do not force the largest-available icon size to be used. The current icon-selection code "locks-in" the largest size icon already found that is otherwise suitable. This is undesirable since downscaling the icon which is the next step up in size should generally be quicker and give a more size-appropriate representation on-screen. Instead of skipping icons that are smaller than an icon already found (even if they are a better "fit" for the desired size), we use a simpler test to skip icons that require upscaling when we've already found an icon that can be downscaled. Otherwise we prefer icons that are closer to the desired size. Issue noted and debugged by Ignat Semenov. CCMAIL:ragnarokk91@gmail.com
