SUMMARY When I try to to move folders down/up in places (drag&drop) it gets reset or nothing happens. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add folder to places by right click a folder and select "Add to places". 2. Try to move them down/up by drag&drop... 3. OBSERVED RESULT Either nothing happens/or moved to the false position; not there where a "blue line/bar" is shown. EXPECTED RESULT Moving Folders in "Places" up/down to the right position. SOFTWARE VERSIONS (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51.0 Qt Version: 5.11.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Using KDE Neon git stable. Dolphin: 18.08.2 https://i.imgur.com/AHpZYVz.png
Have a similar issue. Cant move a specific folder above trash. Whenever I try, the items remain in the same position.
Confirmed, if somebody who runs Dolphin 17.12.3 could test this that'd be great.
Found a workaround: open any KDE file dialog (I used Ctrl O in Chrome) and sort the entries there.
I've intermittently seen this with 18.08 and git master, but I've never been able to come up with a reproducible test case.

The bug happens when you have any entry hidden and it's above or between the entries that you want to reorder. But if the hidden entry is below the icons that you want to reorder, it works. And always works if 'Show All Entries' is checked.
I confirm the bug. usability suffers here. But nice to read about the workround at least. Would be nice if it could be fixed.

Yes, can confirm this. Workaround works. I had the Desktop entry hidden...

It really seems that you have a hidden entry between your "from" and "to" destination. Right-click on an empty area of the places panel, and I bet you get an option "Show hidden places" or "Show all entries". When you get the "move, copy, link" options, you have dropped an entry above another. You have to place it between two entries so the blue border line appears. Hope this help.

That might help, yes, but doesn't solve the problem that it used to work without workaround and now it doesn't.
Git commit 303cd17444e1fb88d1f92a911f7c770214b8f90e by Nate Graham, on behalf of Tigran Gabrielyan. Committed on 20/03/2019 at 16:46. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'Applications/19.04'. Fix rearranging items in places panel with hidden items Summary: `m_sourceModel->movePlace` is called using index from the view model. This becomes an issue when there are hidden places items. This change calls `m_sourceModel->movePlace` using the corresponding mapped source index. FIXED-IN: 19.04.0 Test Plan: # Create at least 4 Places items # Hide first item # Drag the now first visible item between second and third item Actual: The item does not move Expected: The first visible item should now be second visible item in the list Reviewers: #dolphin, ngraham Reviewed By: #dolphin, ngraham Subscribers: ngraham, kfm-devel Tags: #dolphin Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D19901 M +4 -1 src/panels/places/placesitemmodel.cpp https://commits.kde.org/dolphin/303cd17444e1fb88d1f92a911f7c770214b8f90e
