SUMMARY Dolphin doesn't focus on the new pasted file if it's beyond screen border. Let's say we have a folder with 1000 files. We vave to paste a new file with a name of WWW. When we open the folder and it's set to arrange items by name, we see the first 20-30 files beginning with the letters A and B. We don't see the files with W. When we paste the file, Dolphin doesn't focus on the newly pasted file and doesn't mark it as it should be and was like that for ages not only in Dolphin but in every single file manager. It's a new bug and it appears version ot two from 23.08.2. I can't downgrade to try when exactly the problem appeared because of this: https://pastebin.com/8uRcrh7t It's very tiring to search files among thousands of others files many times again. Note that I did not touch anything during paste process and I don't select other files. It's a recent problem. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Copy a file and paste it in a directory with many files where the name of the copied and pasted file is beyond the letters which you're seeing in the moment. 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT When the file transfer is over, it's like nothing happened. EXPECTED RESULT Dolphin should move to the newly pasted file and should mark it. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Arch Linux/KDE Plasma: 5.27.9 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.111.0 Qt Version: 5.15.11
I see that in the moment almost all of the forces are working on Plasma 6 and I'm ok with that if this bug will not be presented in Plasma 6 but I doubt it. It's an important bug and it needs attention. It's a pain to work with directories with many files and to find every new pasted file manually. We're the only one file manager with such ridiculous bug in the moment. It's so intrusive that I installed nemo temporarily but I'm using KDE and I want Dolphin. Please look at this bug.
23.08.3 - the bug is still here.
23.08.4 - there's no difference in this behaviour. Please ask if something is not clear. English isn't my native language so I might not described the problem correctly. I can record a video if there's a need for that.
Everything is clear. Thank you for the report! We are just not that fast to look into it.
Thanks!
Can confirm. From my testing the issue might be that `DolphinView::slotItemCreatedFromJob` never gets called for some reason. I reverted https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/commit/040e2afcfafaa8edd365d959760d4d0e7f3e48d3 locally and this fixed the bug being reported here for me. Not sure what exactly is going wrong though.
Thanks for confirming!

Thank you Méven Car!!! When we can expect the fix to lend in the main version?

I see, thank you very much once again!
Unfortunately this bug isn't solved in Dolphin 24.02.2.
Just tested it both on X11 and Wayland and there's no difference. The bug is there.

Could someone tell me when the fix is supposed to lend for us? There were 2 versions after the fix and it isn't here yet.

Seems to me like the commit by Anthony Fieroni above didn't make it into the Dolphin 24.05 release. So as it stands it will only be available from the August release 24.08 onward.
