I think/hope you meant that the selection icon should be hidden when double is *enabled*. i.e. singleclick is on. Since the selection icon is the most useful when you can't click to select (single-click mode only).

That said, the option has existed since forever in Dolphin, if we're going to bring a feature over, we'd better bring the whole thing and not just bits and pieces to make it inconsistent (as the patcher duly noted.

One thing I had to change is the button hiding logic in ActionOverlay. The selection marker is positioned above the folder peek button, so it needs a QGraphicsGridLayout::removeItem() / ::addItem() instead of a QWidget::hide(), performed every time on the entered() event. As the ::removeItem() has to be called only once, I had to implement a public function that would toggle the button hiding / unhiding.

Aaron, please, have a look into this. This happens with any settings, not onyl the ones I added. (My settings code is absolutely identical to the "Click to view folder" settigns code).
