            Bug ID: 326822
           Summary: Changing navigation settings in Dolphin affects the
                    whole system.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.11.2
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: ckakman at gmail.com

I prefer to use double-clicking to open folder and files. However, I notice
that changing this setting in Dolphin changes how many other applications
behave. It shoudn't.

I have recently filed a bug report for KInfoCenter.
(https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=326291)
Today, I've noticed that the same setting affects how the KDE Help Center
behaves. It exactly the same issue as in KInfoCenter. I can select items in the
tree view but main view is not updated accordingly.

Thinking that this is not an issue related to a specific application but a
general design issue, I decided to file this report for the KDE itself.
According the KInfoCenter bug report, developers connect to the activated()
signal instead of clicked().

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Change the Navigation setting in Dolphin to use double-clicking.
2. Open KInfoCenter or KDE Help Center.
3. Try to change the main view by selecting items in the tree view at the left
by single-clicking.
Actual Results:  
Items get selected but the relevant content not shown in the main view.

Expected Results:  
Update the main view after single-clicking an item in the tree view.
