after choosing "/.." the browse-mode-view does not show anything in its window

[takemaru]

In browse-mode-view to select a file,
going upward through directories-tree by choosin "/.."
the window becomes empty and does not show any other file.

Also changing the view mode (i.e. library-mode, that works) and then back to browse-mode the window remains blank.

That's no possible browsing through files any more.

You need to shoot down Mixxx and start it back.

This bug has been around for a while, thanks for reporting it to the tracker. I've never been able to find a situation where I could make it happen every single time though (ie. consistently reproduceable). Do you know of any ways to make it happen every time?

Thanks,
Albert

I already wrote my observations on this bug on the forum some weeks, ago.
Here might be a better place, so I write them here again.
The browse-view mode becomes empty when you don't click on the first column, but on one of the others. It doesn't matter if it is the ../ entry or any other.
I guess it is because of line 299 in wtracktableview.cpp
setRootIndex(index); //Browse to that directory
I tried:
setRootIndex(index.sibling(index.row(),0));
which works better. The view doesn't get empty anymore, but if you click an other column than the first one, the next view will have a harmless ./ entry. That's the best I could do with my poor C++ and Qt knowledge :)
