mouse multiple selection broken

[Ash]

From time to time, when selecting multiple items(using mouse) the rectangle doesn't close to finalize selection and I should close and reopen pantheon-files.

It happened mostly after switching show hidden files.(Ctrl+H) [this is not a "steps to reproduce" just something I observed. It might have nothing to do with the bug.]

This has recently been fixed

I can still experience this bug with the latest pantheon-files(0.2.4+r2064)

I am sorry if this was not completely fixed. If you can identify a way of reproducing it then it can be addressed. The fix related to pressing multiple buttons while multi-selecting which did cause this effect. Does this still happen in all views?

[Ash (ash1991)]

It seems that the issue is fixed now(0.2.4+r2091). May be as a result of http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~elementary-apps/pantheon-files/trunk/revision/2086

The issue I'm encountering and I think the later revision(i.e. 2086) might be the cause is: The icon view doesn't update on change of folder content.

The way to reproduce:

1. open a folder and let the items to be loaded.
2. open a terminal window and remove a file.
3. pantheon-files still shows the item unless you reload (press F5).

I cannot reproduce the "IconView does not update" bug last mentioned using revision 2124. This is, in any case a different bug to that originally reported and should be reported separately. The original bug is now fixed.
