Current behavior: the focus is in the right side of the area - thus not showing the upcoming pictures. Whishing behavior: focus stays in the middle fixed and at least the next 2 and the last 2 pictures are shown (or more) FOCUS -2 -1 0 +1 +2

Created attachment 91823 [details] scrolltocenter.patch I need a feedback, whether you like this feature. This patch centered the current image in the preview mode of the import and digikam thumb bar. Maik
Maik, Your patch touch stackedview from Album GUI and Import tool to control position of thumbbar items when contents is review in preview mode. What's about Image editor and showfoto. I can load dir with more than one items and change item focus with pageup page down while thumbbar is displayed near canvas. It can make a sense also to have current item loaded in thumbbar center. Other case is LightTable where a thumbar is used to view items list on pool. We can change item to compare on the right side with item on the left side using keyboard. In this case thumbbar focus must follow item displayed on right canvas... Gilles

I've tried Version 4.7.0 Using KDE Development Platform 4.10.2 and the situation is unchaned. I could provide feedback, when Instruction about patching the Version 4.7.0 is provided. Thanks, Gregor
Greg, The patch is not intrusive and can be applied to 4.7.0 source code. This want to have digiKam source code on your computer and to apply patch to source. Recompilation and re-installation is of course mandatory. Did you install digiKam through a package or using source code (tarball) ? Gilles Caulier
Hello Gilles, I've installed the Version 4.7.0 through a package. I'm afraid, I'm not able to install a development environment, since this is a company computer. Thanks, Gregor
Created attachment 91865 [details] scrolltocenter2.patch This patch for testing contains now all thumb bars. It is a time controlled scroll activation needed to obtain a uniform visual feedback. For to LightTable I find the centering of the thumbnails more of a hindrance. ShowFoto has the thumb bar a KineticScroller - was unknown to me, nice. Here test the interaction. Could the centering of the thumbnails disrupt the workflow of other users? Maik
The patch has some problems with D&D. From thumb-bars it's possible to operate D&D with other parts of application (or with extra applications as Dolphin for ex) Your current patch scroll thumb-bar to the center when D&D start to be initiate. This is very problematic... Typically, you must : 1/ detect is D&D is initiate. 2/ scroll selected item to center after that D&D is completed, else GUI behavior is confuse. Gilles
Yes, D&D is broken. I also find that if you use the buttons, the thumbnail image should not jump, but firmly stand in the middle. Maik
Maik, Any progress here ? Did you seen also bug #338918 ? It can depend of this file i think... Gilles
Maik, There is another entry in bugzilla which depend of this one more or less : https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344952 Gilles
Created attachment 92743 [details] scrolltocenter3.patch New patch for testing to center the current thumbnail. Maik
Maik Patch version 3 work perfectly. Great job... Note : bug #338918 can be closed also with this file... Gilles
Created attachment 92772 [details] scrolltocenter4.patch Final version of the patch to commit. Maik

sorry, but in 5.4 the desired behaviour - item focus in fixed in the middle - is not working. In Linux 5.4 the focus moves to the outer area of right (or left) - this behaviour is undesired.
This option is optional and is disabled at default. Look in the settings-> miscellaneous. Maik
