I'm not sure what I did, and I think the problem appeared before I upgraded to rox-2.5, but I can no longer navigate up and down rox-filer's list view with my arrow keys. I can in icon view. However, after I make any kind of selection in the list, it works -- I can move up and down. But, no selection - no movement. Pgup, Pgdn, Home and End all work. Using ctrl-up/dn does work, but it's a lot of work using double-keys for such an intuitive task. (on a flip note, ctrl-arrows don't work in icon view). Arr. |

In sylpheed, arrow keys select up and down the list .. ctrl-arrows move up and down the list, but do not select. In rox, only ctrl-arrows work (they too move up and down the list without selecting any row). I probably did mess some gtk thing up. Not sure what. And not sure why other apps seem to work fine. |

It behaves in several ways quite differently to other lists about - it uses the plain arrows to move up and down, and space to select. Other treeviews use ctrl-up and down to move without selecting, up and down to move the selection, and ctrl-space to select the current item. I would hazard a guess that if Rox just used the default GTK things, then this bug would go away. --=20 Lennon Victor Cook "He who receives an idea from me receives without lessening, as he who lights his candle at mine receives light without darkening" -- Thomas Jefferson |

I may very well have changed some underlying gtk setting -- but can't for the life of me figure out what :|. No errors occur during compilation. (I use gtk+-2.10.6) |

Notice that the way it works is different to other trees and lists. I will try to confirm this in the next couple of days, if what little C I know is good enough to do anything useful here. --=20 Lennon Victor Cook "He who receives an idea from me receives without lessening, as he who lights his candle at mine receives light without darkening" -- Thomas Jefferson |

Ok, I'm comparing the source for rox and thunar (the pertinent files appear to be view_details.c and thunar-details-view.c), and the only difference I can see that could have an impact is that rox does this: --- gtk_tree_selection_set_mode(view_details->selection, gtk GTK_SELECTION_MULTIPLE); --- While thunar doesn't. Unfortunately, I can't test this at the moment, since I'm fighting a bit with Ubuntu's libgtk2.0-dev (it refuses to install one of the dependencies, because that dependency relies on a specific version of libpng12...).=20 --=20 Lennon Victor Cook "He who receives an idea from me receives without lessening, as he who lights his candle at mine receives light without darkening" -- Thomas Jefferson |

Commenting this out had no noticeable affect. However, commenting OUT the proceeding line, === gtk_tree_selection_set_select_function(view_details->selection, test_can_change_selection, view_details, NULL); === made things work -- i can now select with arrow keys, instead of ctrl-arrow :). woohoo. many thanks! :) |

However, I am no longer able to drag-and-drop selected items into folders. Whenever I try to drag a row, or group of rows, the selection changes immediately to the single row over which I am currently hovering -- no drop occurs -- probably because the original selection vanished. |

Should be fixed now; please test by pulling from: git://repo.or.cz/rox-filer.git master commit 04e299d980efb11b64bb1746aef243e97ed6c546 Author: Thomas Leonard <ta...@gm...> Date: Thu Nov 22 18:35:21 2007 +0000 Bugfix: arrow keys didn't work in details view GTK likes to select rows as you move over them. Since we don't want that, ROX-Filer marks the rows as unselectable. However, newer versions refuse to move the cursor at all if the selection behaviour is disabled.

The problem occurs if I try to use arrow keys to make the selection :| -- it introduces a "box" around the selected row (in addition to highlighting it) -- and, for example, I can no longer ctrl-select multple rows (the most recently selected row gets selected, while all others unselected). |
