--- Comment #6 from Felix Ernst <felixer...@kde.org> --- (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #4) > It should also show up if you have the Ctrl or Shift modifier key held down, > such that clicking will in fact grow the selection rather than unselecting > everything. Makes sense to me. (In reply to medin from comment #5) > Sorry but your argument is not convincing at all, if I want to deselect my > selected items I simply release ctrl key and click anywhere. Not sure if I was able to communicate what I mean. When you are about to "click anywhere" to deselect items, you would be confused if a file was highlighted. You would think that your next click would act on that file instead of deselecting everything and not acting on that file. For that reason the highlight should only show up if your next click will interact with that file. > > I personally would want the highlight to never appear if any item is > > selected at all > > Line Highlighting is a necessary way to make easy and fast selection instead > of following that tiny mouse pointer and verify which one is going to be > selected. Right. As Nate said: The highlight should show up while you are for example pressing Ctrl to select additional items. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
