It's convenient to unselect file/folder by pressing 'Esc'. In KDE 4.8.2, Dolphin/Konqueror use 'Esc' for 'Stop' loading (as before) but not for unselect. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select some files/folders 2. Press 'Esc' key Actual Results: Nothing changes Expected Results: These selected files/folders are unselected
@Peter: I saw that you confirmed this bug, but I think this should actually be fixed since KDE 4.8.3: http://quickgit.kde.org/index.php?p=kde-baseapps.git&a=commit&h=d3b1312d3edc615b03fb17c1a5fa62ccb61cdabd If you can reproduce this with KDE >= 4.8.3 (I can't), there must still be something wrong. Could you describe how you can reproduce this bug?
Frank, you are of course right and this is fixed in 4.8.3. Strange: I'm sure I started Dolphin 4.8.3 to verify this issue - probably I messed something up and I've lost the keyboard focus, I don't know ;-) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 298742 ***
