"next image" in editor does not change selection in album view anymore

[Daniel Bauer]

Ha! After Gilles mail I tested with some small directories (8 and 9 
images), also with very small images, and after actualizing the album 
(f5). Same result.

After your mail I went to settings and in "views" (Ansichten) selected 
"show preview" just to see what happens. I restarted digikam, but when I 
clicked on "editor" (Bildbearbeitung) I could not move to previous/next 
image... So I changed back to "open editor" in settings.

And guess what: now when going to next image one or several times, *it 
works*. So, something happened when changing the settings...

It also works in huge directories (590 images) and with large size png's 
(20 MB).

Well, strange, but it works now :-)
