Ghost file ocasionally remains when dropping file into directory
Steps to reproduce:
- thunar -q;thunar
- quickly DnD some file into some directory, you need to be fast to trigger the bug ... minimize the drag time, best move into a folder located directly near the file. --> file will still be shown in parent directory, but is not there any more CTRL+R will update the view.
- That will work only once for each file. One can create a new file, which than can be affected by the bug.
- Seems not to matter which view is used
- Happens with/without gvfs enabled
The attached patch seems to fix the bug: 0001-possible-reload-fix.patch

Thanks for testing ... possibly related to system performance, or some other factor.
For @reubengreen73 it seems to happen often on my WIP branch, he does not even need to be fast there. But Reuben cannot reproduce on master. I can reproduce on both, but only if I do the drag very quickly.
Here his comment: !7 (comment 10469)
(Reuben's comment on the WIP branch is how I noticed that bug at all)
Possibly as well fixes #267 (closed) ? .. have to test that.

I've had this since a fresh install of 20.04 with thunar 1.8.14 - ALL files remain in the right pane until manually refreshed with F5. I have a dim memory of there being a hack to solve this with refresh time or something...

I gave it a quick try, but your patch does not fix the other bug.
Thanks for testing it !
So for me this does not happen every time on ReplaceGtkAction56, but usually I only need to do 2 or 3 drag-and-drops to see it.
Fixed my previous comment .. I really like that aspect of gitlab :P
Arguably relates to this?
Yea, seems to be another facet of it. I guess Harald is right with his comment: Best would be to re-write that whole reload part, using a queue approach together with some delay. For remote location performance Iit would probably help alot if refresh would only happen once, and only when really needed. I'll open a new issue for it. Edit: #313 (closed)

I just took a try for multiple files .. for me it's the same like for a single file. If I am quick, all files are still visible. The attached patch fixes it for me. So possibly the same defect.

Is this issue totally fixed?
I use thunar master and occasionally, the view isn't refreshed on paste, deletion, download, etc.Unfortunately, I can't give steps to reproduce, but when it occurs, it is systematic: no more refresh at all, and one has to completely restart thunar (including daemon).
The last time it happened, I grabbed some logs (I think they appeared after a manual refresh of the view):
