When the current view mode is different from the view mode for
which settings were changed in Dolphin's settings dialog, those
changes were sometimes not present when then changing the view
mode of a view to the view mode for which settings were changed.
This commit fixes this by always loading the settings for all view
modes in the DolphinItemListView even if the view is currently
using only one of those view modes.
This commit changes how the setting to switch between full row
highlight and the old way of only having the icons and names be
activatable in details mode is presented on the settings page.
Before this commit a singular checkbox is used that talks about
the highlight effect.
But the highlight effect isn't actually what users should be
interested in. They mostly care how much of the area can be used to
activate an item. To make this clear this commit uses radio buttons
instead that give a distinctive choice between activation areas.
When not using the full row highlight, the text of non-name columns
in details view mode was wrongly colored in a way that pretended
that the full row selection highlight was active.
When it isn't active we use the normal color that we generally use
when the additional information is not within the selection
highlight.
In d383961719 the details view mode
was changed in a way that made the full row of an item the click
target instead of only having the item's icon and text be the
representative clickable area of an item.
This commit makes this new behaviour optional through a setting
which can be changed in Dolphin's settings dialog.
The explanation for introducing yet another setting in this case is
as follows:
While the introduced change is an improvement for many typical
workflows, there are some workflows for which this new behaviour
is problematic. Quite prominently a usage of Dolphin that tries
to maximise information density is made worse by the change because
now side padding is necessary to click the view's background. While
the side padding is and was optional, disabling it made switching
the active view in split view mode more difficult among other
things. For a more complete discussion about the issues, please
check out the bug report(s) and the discussion in Dolphin's gitlab
issue with number 34.

BUG: 453700
FIXED-IN: 22.12
This one liner changes the signal that is emitted when the
"Dismiss" button is pressed on the Paste bottom bar in selection
mode. Before this commit, the `leaveSelectionModeRequested()`
signal was used but it had no effect because technically the
selection mode isn't active anymore when the paste bar is shown.
Everything works as expected if instead
`barVisibilityChangeRequested()` is emitted.
The application launching Dolphin passes a token via the XDG_ACTIVATION_TOKEN environment variable
We need to pass that to the running instance so that it can use it to raise itself
This commit introduces the private getter
DolphinTabWidget::viewContainerAt(ViewIndex)
and another private method
DolphinTabWidget::activateViewContainerAt(ViewIndex).
Both methods return nullptr if there is no valid
DolphinViewContainer at the specified ViewIndex.
Before this commit, even items that are distant children of
currently open views were considered selectable. This lead to the
bug that items meant to be highlighted through DBus would not be
highlighted if any ancestor of the item was open in any view.
This was fixed by only considering items in view if they can be
seen by scrolling. Main difficulty here was to make this also work
for the details view mode which allows expanding.
To implement this cleanly, some refactoring seemed necessary
because the logic to determine if an item is already in view
was previously intertwined with the logic to identify already open
directories.
This commit also contains the following refactorings aiming to
make the code more readable:
- A magic value (-1) is replaced using std::optional.
- A boolean trap is removed.
- A QPair is replaced by a struct with named variables.
- More and improved documentation
