Possible bug: Prevous/Next (Left Key / Right Key) do not respond after applying a flag to an image

[AndriusWild]

Hello,

I have noticed that if I apply a flag to an image (e.g. press Alt+1) and do not
wait  until the flag symbol in the right panel changed its color, pressing
Left/Right keys does switch pictures Prevous/Next and kind of gets locked. If
I want to use the arrow keys again I need to click on a picture first.

If I do wait for a second or two the keys work properly.

Lazy syncronization is ON.

Is this a bug?

Hi,

This problem have been already reported in the past in bugzilla. We
need to implement a widget focus proxy to restore the focus after to
run a low level process which interact with the GUI with signals and
slots notifications. If i remember, i see something like this
implemented in Gwenview in the past.

Some files from bugzilla relevant :

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308252
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=371635

And certainly more usability issues...

Best
