Hi Peter,

in the split-mode you will sometimes be unable to delete files/folders. The attached screenshot will show such a situation. The only way to workaround this is to move to another folder (i.e. parent folder) and to move back to the concerned folder.

Please have a look on how to fix this. Split-window mode is awesome, but still too buggy currently. That is a pity.

Regards,
Quentin

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
Open a subfolder in split-mode and try to delete any file from the parent folder (any column on the left of the opened subfolder). You won't be able to perform some actions on those files/folders


Expected Results:  
Quite obvious

This seems to refer to column view and also occurs in non-split mode.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open one folder $a in column view, this adds another column to the right.
2) Open folder $a/$b in the second column. This adds another column to the right. Focus is on the righmost column.

3a) If you now right-click on a folder in the second (middle) column, it shows the context menu entries enabled.
3b) If instead, you first click in a free area in the second column and afterwards right-click on a folder in there, the context menu entries are disabled.

This is at least inconsistent.

Well, actually, I meant column mode, sorry! It has nothing to do with the split mode.
