Description

Having enabled Preferences->Behavior->[x]Single click to activate items

How to reproduce:

  1. Enable side pane tree view
  2. Select a directory by click
  3. Hover a file in the file view

Single click only works on the file view, not on the directory tree pane, which is ok. But after selecting a directory the automatic selection on the files only works after clicking once in a free area of the file view. This does not work when the view has scrollbars and filled with files without free area. Files are focussed then but not selected. Even a workaround by right click, closing context menu makes one file selected but automatic selection still does not work. This is required for selecting a range of files using Shift button.
