           Summary: Multi-file selection does not work when Dolphin is
                    opened with a pre-selected file
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin

SUMMARY
When Dolphin opens and shows a selected file, e.g. when clicking on "open
containing folder" in Firefox after downloading a file, the intended file is
correctly selected and acts normally, i.e. it opens if you press "enter" on the
keyboard. However, if you press "shift" to select all files between that one
and a second, the selection does not work. You have to manually select the
already-selected file, and then select the second one.
This is reproducible on all my machines, running either Neon or Arch.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download a file through Firefox
2. Open the containing folder
3. While pressing "shift", select another file so that all the files in between
those two should be selected.

OBSERVED RESULT
The file is selected as expected, however the "shift selection" does not work.

EXPECTED RESULT
The "shift selection" works.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
