What is the expected behavior for keys and shortcuts in general? I see the
following scenarios.
Case 1
Currently, if no shortcut is set and you press Ctrl+left/right (arrows) in
- thumbnail view: only the first image is selected but the cursor moves to
the neighbor image (either left or right). Same if you use up/down arrows.
- image view (focus on the image): nothing happens.
- thumbnail bar: extended selection. Split view.
- full screen: nothing happens.
Case 2
If you set a shortcut that involves Ctrl, for instance Ctrl+left/right are
previous/next:
- thumbnail view: extended selection. The neighbor image is selected.
- image view (focus on the image): nothing happens.
- thumbnail bar: extended selection. Split view.
- full screen: extended selection.
First of all, is the current behavior correct for case 1? In addition, I
noticed that if you press shift+left/right in the thumbnail bar nothing
happens. Usually, shift is a modifier for extended selection either with arrows
or mouse clicks and this works in the case of thumbnail view. If I'm right,
Ctrl is usually an individual extended selector with mouse clicks. In image
view you can do it also with the keyboard using the space bar, however this
doesn't work in Dolphin, for example.
Now, if a shortcut is set as in case 2 above, does it have to take precedence
over other behavior? That means using the previous/next shortcut (assuming the
shortcut is set to ctrl+left/right) in the thumbnail bar won't split the views.
I mention this because there was a MR
(https://invent.kde.org/graphics/gwenview/-/merge_requests/210) where that
action was lost. However, this happened because the ExtendedSelection flag was
removed even if there was no conflict with ctrl+left/right. And if there is no
conflict, then the behavior should be the described by @Nikitail (just move to
the next image).
