            Bug ID: 423015
           Summary: Cannot copy to ramdisk with Dolphin, modifiers for
                    copying and moving only work when mouse moves
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: myLC at gmx.net

  Target Milestone: ---

I'm doing what one should not do and file two simple bugs here. I'm not sure if
they belong to Dolphin or the KDE interface. Please put them in correct group,
if you don't mind.
I'm writing from a different system. Hence, I do not know the version, but as
it's a Manjaro (amd64) system updated today (2020/06/15), you can assume that
it's rather recent.

Bug 1: Cannot copy to ramdisk, KDE/Dolphin complains about it being full
My ramdisk is in fstab as:
ramfs   /mnt/ram        ramfs   defaults,mode=1777      0       0
When I drag a file to an open file lister in path /mnt/ram for copying, Dolphin
will show a red ribbon claiming that the disk is full. Needless to say that
doing the same via the command-line or any other tool works nicely.

Bug 2: Modifier keys as shortcuts for copying (CTRL) or moving (SHIFT) files
between listers (Dolphin) only work when moving the mouse. On a desktop system
this is unnoticeable, as the mouse almost always moves when doing this. On a
notebook with a touchpad, however, this is annoying. One drags a file to
another lister and presses SHIFT and nothing happens. Only when you move around
on the trackpad, the arrow changes into move-mode.
Suggested solution (if it's implemented that way): Connect the key up and key
down signals to the slot as well.
This seems to have been filed already in 2015:

Unless I'm mistaken, they closed it?!?
