Bug Description
Not sure whether this is a bug or intended behaviour.
When in pantheon list view, I can use right arrow to expand a folder. When a few folders deep into the tree I would expect the left arrow to move back up the tree, closing the folders as it goes, like what happens in nautilus, and osx finder.
i.e.
Home
- Documents
- M250
- Doc1
----
- Doc2 (selected)
----
If I've got Doc2 selected, pressing left arrow should take me to 'M250' with this folder also being closed. Left again would take me to 'Documents', and left again would take me to 'Home'. Keeping on pressing the left arrow would eventually take you up to the parent with all child folders closed.
In pantheon, in order to move up the tree, I have to use the up arrow until I get to M250, then left to close it, then up again to the previous folder etc etc... it's all not very fluid at all. As I said, I'm not sure whether this is a bug or intended behaviour. If it is intended behaviour, maybe an option in eOS to use nautilus instead. My preference is actually column view but that crashes all the time in pantheon and is unusable.

Definitely agree with this bug report. If right arrow opens a folder, it would make sense that left arrow should take you "up" to focus the parent folder
