--- Comment #8 from Felix Ernst <felixer...@kde.org> --- (In reply to flan_suse from comment #7) > Then why does *single-clicking* to open still keep the file selected? Neither single-clicking a file in single-click mode nor double-clicking a file in double-click mode currently selects a file. > Why does *pressing the enter key* to open still keep the file selected? Because in a purely keyboard workflow moving around constantly selects the current item. You won't be able to scroll a selected item out of view simply by using the arrow keys. This is different to how the selection is simply kept when a user scrolls with the mouse. In a keyboard workflow it is expected that a user always has one item selected. > Why does this "safety feature" *only* affect double-click to open? It does not. This is also about going up in the file system hiearchy and single-click mode. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
