Navigating into a folder by normal means, going back, then double-clicking Mouse9 to re-enter the folder (click 1) and open a file inside it (click 2).

SUMMARY
When the system is set up to use double-click to open files or folders, it is seemingly possible to do so in Dolphin using non-primary mouse buttons, such as the Forward and Backward navigation buttons (Mouse9/8).
This occurs even if the first click triggers history navigation.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In System Preferences, set "Clicking files or folders *selects them*".
2. In Dolphin, hover over a file or folder
3. Press either Mouse8 (Back) or Mouse9 (Forward) twice in quick succession.
(If the first click causes navigation, ensure there is an item below the cursor afterwards.)

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin does not navigate forward/back on the second click.
Instead, it behaves as if the item located under the cursor was double-clicked (opens files, navigates into folders).
This happens even if the first click triggered history navigation.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin *does* navigate forward or back on the second click (if applicable).
The hovered file or folder is *not* opened/navigated into.

Comment 1 Felix Ernst 2024-08-05 15:15:44 UTC
This should now be fixed by https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/commit/131c889b0c050592809035242db6200482e0edde . Be aware that the fix will only be released for Dolphin 24.12 (in December). It will not be available in the yet-to-be-released Dolphin 24.08.
