Bug ID: 509912
Summary: Allow scrolling using scrollwheel when dragging items
in the viewport
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version First 25.08.1
Reported In:
Platform: EndeavourOS
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
Reporter: ulterno at gmail.com
CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When using click-hold and drag on an item (hence, visually moving the item),
the scroll wheel becomes unusable.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a folder with enough items to expose the view's scroll functionality
2. Select an item and click-hold (using mouse LMB) and drag it, so that the
visual cue of "moving the file" gets activated. Keep it held
3. Use the scroll wheel
OBSERVED RESULT
Unable to notice the scroll-wheel having any effect
EXPECTED RESULT
The scroll wheel should cause the scroll action as it normally does
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: EndeavourOS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.18.0
Qt Version: 6.9.2
Kernel Version: 6.16.7-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
By contrast, using click-hold and drag for selection allows using the
scroll-wheel at the same time.
Having to rely upon moving the cursor to just the right location in the view
that it starts moving the scroll-bar, is not fun to use. It feels like being
constricted to slower behaviour despite having an input device that can do
better.
