Contiguous files are auto selected when deleting

[Supersayano]

As you can see in the attached image, when you delete one or more files or folders, the next or adjacent file or folder remains selected. I don't know if this is normal and happens to everyone, or maybe just me, or maybe it's a bug. The fact is that I would like that not to happen, and that after deleting a file or folder nothing would be selected.

Yes, this also happens here in a vanilla Kubuntu 24.04 LTS installation - but not in e.g. openSUSE Leap with Plasma 5.27.9 and Dolphin 22.12.3…

I doubt it will be fixed for Plasma 5.27.11/Dolphin 23.08.5 in Kubuntu though - perhaps it will be resolved by a future update from the Kubuntu Backports PPA.


PS: Good video to reconstruct the bug - this is how it should be done!

Thank you so much.

Def worth a bug report on bugs.kde,org.
Seems to be the same on Plasma 6. Can't tell if by design or not, but it doesn't seem like it would be.

Until now I thought this to be a Kubuntu 24.04 LTS "problem" only, because earlier in openSUSE Leap it did not happen…

Now I can confirm this behaviour for

• Kubuntu 24.04.0 LTS with Plasma 5.27.11, Frameworks 5.115, Qt 5.15.13 and Dolphin 23.08.5 (like the OP)
• openSUSE Tumbleweed with Plasma 6.0.4, Frameworks 6.2, Qt 6.7.0 and Dolphin 24.02.2
• Arch with Plasma 6.0.5, Frameworks 6.2, Qt 6.7.1 and Dolphin 24.05.0.

It does not occur in

• Kubuntu 22.04.4 LTS (with the Kubuntu Backports and Backports Extra PPAs) with Plasma 5.27.11, Frameworks 5.104, Qt 5.15.3 and Dolphin 22.04.3
• Debian 12.5 with Plasma 5.27.5, Frameworks 5.103, Qt 5.15.8 and Dolphin 22.12.3
• openSUSE Leap 15.5 with Plasma 5.27.9, Frameworks 5.103, Qt 5.15.8 and and Dolphin 22.12.3.

Seems to be a regression - probably in Frameworks, Qt or Dolphin…
