[BUG]Folder side panel not updating after move

Post by peterfalk »

1. Add a side panel with folder view
2. Right-click on a folder
3. Select 'Move to' selected folder to a subfolder in the tree
4. Execute move

Result: Folder gets moves but side panel with folder view does not get updated. The moved folder is still visible in the original position. Selecting it does nothing, also not updating the browser view.

I can reproduce this. F5 refresh does not affect the problem.

After using "Right-Click:Move To" in the folder pane to move a folder, the app will show the folder in both the old and new locations, at least under some circumstances.

The issue does not occur when the move is done with drag-and-drop.

The "phantom" folder at the old location will disappear from the folder pane if the parent folder is selected and F5 Refresh is executed. F5 on the phantom folder itself does nothing.

The issue does not seem to occur if the folder to be moved already exists when the app starts; only if the folder is newly created when the app is running.
